Dear Moderators
I modeled a cylinder with 32 m diameter and 46 m height with shell elements and applied time history loading on it. But the model does not converge with the real values for E and ro(density). When I use E=2.486E10 N/m and ro= 2400 (Kg/M^3) the model diverges in 4 second. While if I change the (Density) ro=2.4 or increase the E the model would converge.
I would be thankful if you could take a look at model and tell me the problem.
Best Regards,
wipe all ;

Cylinder modeling using shell elements

Re: Cylinder modeling using shell elements
Try doing the analysis in the loop like in this example: http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... e_Analysis
Re: Cylinder modeling using shell elements
Dear Vesna
I applied the changes you asked me, but unfortunately It did not run completely. Apparently it has other problem with shell element, or if its problem is related to analysis, it also has the problem by the changes you suggested me..
I would be thankful if you could go through the model once again and see the problem.
I applied following changes in analysis:
#set MotionInterval 0.005
##set MotionFile "Elcentro.txt"
##set MotionScale 0.01
#set MotionStep 4000
#set TmaxAnalysis 20
#set Tol 0.001
#constraints Transformation
#numberer RCM
#system SparseGeneral
#test EnergyIncr 1.0e-4 200
#algorithm Newton
#integrator Newmark 0.5 0.25
#analysis Transient
#set Nsteps $MotionStep ;
#set ok [analyze $Nsteps $MotionInterval];
#if {$ok != 0} {
#set ok 0;
#set controlTime [getTime];
#while {$controlTime < $TmaxAnalysis && $ok == 0} {
#set controlTime [getTime]
#set ok [analyze 1 $MotionInterval]
#if {$ok != 0} {
#puts "Trying Newton with Initial Tangent .."
#test NormDispIncr $Tol 1000 0
#algorithm Newton -initial
#set ok [analyze 1 $MotionInterval]
#test EnergyIncr 1.0e-3 500 3
##test $testTypeDynamic $TolDynamic $maxNumIterDynamic 0
#algorithm ModifiedNewton
#}
#if {$ok != 0} {
#puts "Trying Broyden .."
#algorithm Broyden 8
#set ok [analyze 1 $MotionInterval]
#algorithm NewtonLineSearch 0.6
#}
#if {$ok != 0} {
#puts "Trying NewtonWithLineSearch .."
#algorithm NewtonLineSearch .8
#set ok [analyze 1 $MotionInterval]
#algorithm KrylovNewton
#}
#}
#}; # end if ok !0
