Re: bracing-friction damper system

<t>Yes I've checked up all the nodes of link elements and I've made mistakes in the elements connectivity, now they work correctly!<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
Another question, there's a way to counting the value of energy dissipation during the hysteretic cycles of link elements??<br/>
<br/>
Thank you very ...

bracing-friction damper system

<t>Hi<br/>
I'm trying to model bracing-friction damper system for seismic retrofitting an industrial bulding.<br/>
The system is very simple,it's comprised of one inner steel plate and two outer brass and steel plates.<br/>
Friction forces of the damper are produced in faying surfaces between brass ...

Adimensional Time History Curves

Hi
I've different adimensional [1/g] ground acceleration curves (in text files) for my Time History analysis.
when I apply the load, the software ask me a curve multiplier.
So I've to set this value egual to the gravity acceleration or not??
Thanks

Modelling an industrial bulding

<t>I'm using the software SeismoStruct for analysing an industrial building and his dynamic behavior.<br/>
THe bulding has: <br/>
-1 Storey height: 5.7m <br/>
-2 Bays lenght: 24.7m <br/>
-8 frames spacing: 8.7m<br/>
I am using for the first time the software, it is my second day. I had some doubts ...
