Analysis

Description

Pushover
Analysis

Analysis method to efficiently evaluate

the post-yield behavior of the structure.

Nonlinear
Time History
Analysis

Time history analysis method

considering
nonlinear
property
of
structural
members
or
boundary
conditions.

Time History
Analysis

Calculates a series of structural responses

for an arbitrary time based on the
dynamic characteristics of a structure and
applied loads when the structure is
subjected to dynamic loads.

Material
Nonlinear
Analysis

Perform material nonlinear analysis

using plastic properties to be applied to
a structure.

Elastic Link

Function
Restrain the degrees-of-freedom of selected nodes.

Replace or remove previously defined spring stiffness.

Define the general node spring stiffness first to enter the
general spring supports
Enter spring stiffness per unit supporting area of planar or solid
elements to create elastic spring supports.
Create or remove elastic links.

General Link Properties

Add, modify or delete the properties of general link elements.

General Link

Create or delete general link elements, each linking two nodes.

Beam End Release

Enter the end release conditions at both ends of beam elements,

or replace or remove previously entered end release conditions.

Beam End Offsets

Define Rigid End Offset Distance

Plate End Release

Enter the nodal connection conditions

Rigid Link
Diaphragm Disconnect
Panel Zone Effects
Node Local Axis

Constrain certain degrees-of-freedom of Slave Nodes to a

Master Node.
Select the desired nodes to be disconnected from Floor Rigid
Diaphragms
Automatically consider the stiffness effects of the Panel Zone
Declare a local coordinate system for selected nodes

How to convert self-weight into mass

In the beam, mass is lumped at the end nodes.
Half right mass of beam is concentrated on the right end
of the element and the left side is same.
