modeling of space structurs(dome structure)

Post by mohammadkh »

Hello dear
I have modeled an unit dome in OpenSees. when I want to analyze eigen values,the following error shows. Is there anyone who can help me to solve this problem?
** On entry to DLASCL, parameter number 4 had an illegal value
** On entry to DLASCL, parameter number 4 had an illegal value
ArpackSolver::Error with _saupd info = -9999

di factorization: is 1factorization. The user is advised to check thatenough wor
kspace and array storage has been allocated.

Also, I have attach my model.

Hi ,

I am just wondering if you did solve this problem that was causing this error.
If yes what was it because I am getting something similar to it

the original post was due to the 2 angles being the same .. resulting in a gibberish section definition.
