Could you attach you file?

Good afternoon KENNEtHFUGATE: You are right but I do not know why. I realized that as soon as I increased the time period I got better convergence. In this case, I began calculations imposing 0-1 seconds range but I end up in 0-1000seconds. MANUEL

Thank you VICTOR , but I am trying out. I will let you know. MANUEL

Good morning VICTOR. About the wrinkle on the edge: I agree with you, the wrinkle on the edge is nice and MW caught that behaviour perfectly. In real like, that wrinkle needs to be removed. To do that, I must must cut off fabric on the edge(modi…

Good morning COMMUNITY, DISLA, VICTOR: [Thank you very much for your help.] I have being think about it. You are are right, and I am going to mention some important aspects from your comments: * The model needs more stiffness,. The fact is, we…
-
I will open the .inp file to check out the values.
-
DISLA, I am going to switch to CCX 2.17 solver (for example) to check it out. I will tell you
-
Dear VICTOR Thank for you replay. I do not think that the fabric is about to collapse because in this kind of structures all elements work in tension(zero compression allows==wrinkles ) .Let's see
-
Dear DISLA: You are absolutely right. I had a lot of convergence troubles last week. I almost struggled and drop my nee. It is odd to me to be forced to consider 100 seconds as a "total time". I wanted to use 1 seconds (of course). I am aware abo…
-
Dear DISLA: The TENSION_ONLY material only can be declared in "the custom model definition" item because MW does not yet support this material straightforward. -Regarding 0.0005(in meters according to VICTOR'S directions)=0.5mm. This is the thickn…

I attach you the clay arch cross-section.

Congratulations for your accurate work SERGIO. MANUEL

My results on the bolt assembly using CCX 2.19 STATIC: CUP i7 6700 CPU 3.40GHZ. 4 coresx2 MEMORY: 64GB DDR4 Run Time: 40.40 seconds
-
GEMADA, I run your analysis. Great job. Your temperatures over time are almost exactly the ones from the EC2-CONCRETE plot. Big accuracy from you. MANUEL I want to point out one thing. I recommend you to consider at least 35mm(nominal cover 25m…

Find my "simplified" fire resistence spreadsheet for reinforced concrete cross sections attached according to CTE-DB-SI(incendios==fire)
-
Nice example. For professional proposes, I use the simplify method(which is conservative) of "a_m " based on tables and the virtual thickness between the reinforcement and the outer and closer exposed concrete face. According to the spanish regulati…

Regarding PROP_DESIGH answer on May16th. (sorry for being late; but here I am) Good morning PROP_DESIGN: Dear ANTHONY: Thank you very much for your reply(on May 16th). I agree with you that “formulas” are a great tool to post-process the analysis…
-
Dear PROP_DESIGN: The first of all, congratulations for your nice example posted. I was wondering if you have extra information or theory about your "vibratory_allowable_stress_MPa_for_XXX" formula embedded in your liml file? Thank you in advance …
-
My apologies for the confusing screenshot I previously sent. You are absolutely right. I remembered about the mesh quality plug-in from Onelab (gmsh package).
-
Maybe it is possible to compute mesh quality using a python script.
-
-
Good morning JASE: I want to share a couple of thoughts with you: I do not know in MW but you can certainly do it when you mesh using gmsh(ONELAB-statistics->Mesh). If I am not mistaken, you can query about this info when using SALOME-MECA. …
-
Sergio, last week I copied the displacements over time (of a single node )into an excel file in order to determine velocities and accelerations. And I also plotted the results. I must admit this is stuff and you can be wrong anytime due to hand m…
-
You are absolutely right. MANUEL

I enclose MC liml file. MANUEL

Good afternoon JRP: I enclose a 3d model involving weldings. I know that this is not what you are asking for. However, I think you might find it usefull. In this case, I phisically defined the welding and used "bonded contact" option to link the …
-
Good afternoon DISLA: My name is MANUEL MARTÍN, spanish architect specialiced in structure calculation. (I am not a student, I'd wish I could be one, but not). I will let you know about the progress in my library!!! Regards MANUEL
-
Good morning DISLA: Thank you very much for your comments and your contributions. You are absolutely right, the beam element used in MC engines only considers axial and flexural stiffness. Besides, I also wanted to include rotational springs into …
-
Good morning Victor: I enclose you a scheme(brief summary) of the model of the partially release end frame. I need the MPC to transfer displacements from end of the frame which is a theoretical zero-length joint until the rest of the 3d frame. With …

Good morning VICTOR: Actually the 3D model includes a distributed mass over the top of the slab representing: First: the dead load from the steps Second: from 10-20% of the life load. MANUEL
