error when use opensees1.6.2 in winxp

Post by wunico »

when i use opensees1.6.2 to caculate a RC frame(use nonlinear element).the static analysis(gravity load analysis) could finish successfully.but when the opensees start trasient analysis .windows will report an error,and opensees terminate then.when i did not record section stiff of element,the opensees1.6.2 could finish analysis successfully.but opensees1.6.1 could caculate the same frame and record stiff data successfully!why?

have you resolved this problem?
typically you get such segmentation fault when you have not defined all the components of the structure (nodes, materials and elements) before the analysis.
you are still having problems, please post your script.
