analysis

Post by cyw »

My model consist a tunnel under the ground, subjected to cyclic load.The soil material is PressureIndependMultiYield Material,element is quadUP;for the tunnel,Elastic Beam Column Element is used;and for the lateral boundaries, viscous damper is used.There may be some problems in gravity applications: during the elastic gravity application, the displacement of the node are small, but when update the materialstage,they become very large.

analysis command:
updateMaterialStage -material 1 -stage 0

# create the SOE, ConstraintHandler, Integrator, Algorithm and Numberer
numberer RCM
system ProfileSPD
test EnergyIncr 1.0e-5 25 1
algorithm KrylovNewton
constraints Transformation
integrator Newmark 1.6 1.1025
analysis Transient

analyze 100 50

updateMaterialStage -material 1 -stage 1

analyze 1000 0.5
