Seismosoft | Earthquake Engineering Solutions

Thank you for your help, what are reasonable values for applied load and target displacement?

Hi,

I use SeismoStruct to obtain moment-curvature curve in shear wall but it has convergence problem.
How should I fix it?
Here is my model:

How many Ritz vectors in directions should I request in this case?

Thank you for your quick answer, I requested 6 number of eigenvalue now I get "Imaginary or null eigen-solution" for modes 2 to 6

Hello,

When I run eigenvalue analysis I get this warning:
Could not re-orthogonalise all Lanczos vectors

Thank you,
Reza Sheikhi

Thanks a lot
Would you recommend any solution for this convergence problems?

Would you like to take a look at my model? I'm working on my thesis and need your help

So how can I model the slackness of the cable with lin_asm curve in tension?

I can’t find resources how to model slack cables in your website. Unfortunately, I’m not sure the way I model the link is correct. Could you please take a look at my project?
Thank you for the help

Hi
I have to model a series of slack cables. Therefore I am trying to set a link with a gap_hk between two coincident nodes at the middle of each cable-element and assign 3K stiffness for each element class so the total stiffness of the slack cable brace will be K. Unfortunately, I’m not sure the ...
