Examples
- The OpenSees Examples Manual contains examples on how to create models and perform simulations on those models.
- It has examples ranging from simple single element linear models to complex 3D nonlinear fiber models.
- These examples are intended only to show the usage of the commands available in OpenSees. They are not necessarily examples showing the best of practice.
- The OpenSees Sensitivity Analysis contains commands and application examples on how to perform response sensitivity analysis.
- These examples are intended only to show the usage of the commands available in OpenSees. They are not necessarily examples showing the best of practice.
