Damping Forces

[cfontana]

Dear Sirs,

i am working with the new postprocessing tab "Damping Element Forces" and the results seem to be to high.
I checked with a NTH the forces in a dashpot and the force seems to be double of the actual value (support reaction).

Waiting for your suggestions,

Regards

Have you considered in your calculations the inertia forces from the structural masses?
