This command is used to perform the analysis.


analyze $numIncr <$dt> <$dtMin $dtMax $Jd>

$numIncr number of analysis steps to perform.
$dt time-sep increment. Required ig transient or variable transient analysis
$dtMin $dtMax minimum and maximum time steps Required if a variable time step transient analysis was specified.
$Jd number of iterations user would like performed at each step. The vraibele transient analysis will change current time step if last analysis step took more or less iterations than this to converge.

Required if a variable time step transient analysis was specified.

RETURNS:

0 if successfull

<0 if NOT successfull


EXAMPLE:

anlayze 10; # perform 10 static analysis steps

analyze 2000 0.01; # perform 2000 transient time steps at 0.01 increments node 2 0.0 120. 0.0; # x,y,z coordinates (0,120,0) of node 2
