I’m doing a pushover analysis for a Nonlinear concrete frame. The NonlinearBeamColumn elements with 5 integration points are selected. After the gravity analysis, a pushover analysis with load controlled pattern is conducted. I tried many solvers but all of the strategies cannot complete the whole analysis. I examined the model carefully and I think it’s the solver selected resulting in the convergence problem.
The error message is
The script is attached as follow,WARNING - ForceBeamColumn2d::update - failed to get compatible element forces &
deformations for element: 630(dW: << 1.06833)
Domain::update - domain failed in update
LoadControl::update - model failed to update for new dU
WARNING AcceleratedNewton::solveCurrentStep() -the Integrator failed in update()
StaticAnalysis::analyze() - the Algorithm failed at iteration: 63 with domain at
load factor 0.64
OpenSees > analyze failed, returned: -3 error flag
