IDA & paralle processor(CPU)

[mehdikia2519]

Dear fmk
I hope this email finds you well.
you know incremental dynamic analysis (IDA) is a powerful computer -intensive method that offers a comprehensive evaluation of the seismic performance of the structures ,however it is a more time consuming procedure . it seems one of the best solution in order to reduce analysis time is running IDA in parallel system but i don't know how it is possible in opensees . please guide me about this problem .
thanks a lot

you want to use OpenSeesMP, look at the Steel and Concrete building at about 27.5 minutes into the following. Basically 6 additional lines of code to the script.
you can run on a parallel machine. If you don't have access to one, try NEEShub.
