OpenSees Version 2.1 and Version 2.0

Post by subrata »

Hi,
I have analyzed soil-pile interaction problem using OpenSees Version 2.0.0. When I run the same tcl file in Version 2.1.0 I have got different results.

Can anybody tell me what are the basic differences in these two versions?

Thanks,
Subrata

(Relating to your other post too)

In OS 2.0:

element quad $eleID $node1 $node2 $node3 $node4 $width "PlaneStrain" matID $press $rho $gravX $gravY

Where as OS 2.1:
element quad $eleID $node1 $node2 $node3 $node4 $width "PlaneStrain" matID $press $gravX $gravY


So there is a good chance that if you have gravity specified, OS2.1 reads $rho as the first value of $gravX, and gravX as the value of $gravY.
