Dear Colleagues,
I'm doing a cyclic loading of RC column using Static General, Dynamic Implicit and Dynamic Explicit solvers.
Though I have almost similar results for the SG and DI cases, the results are very different for the DE case (see Figure). I've tried to divide each cycle into 4 load...
Dear Colleagues,
I'm trying to make a model of RC prefabricated structure using ETABS software's link elements to model the connection between the elements.
The links are multi-linear plastic with non-linear force-displacement relationship for U1 and U2 directions.
The U2 direction represents...
Dear Colleagues,
Please share your thoughts on the following question.
I'm going to model a Prefabricated Large Panel Reinforced Concrete Building in ETABS and perform Nonlinear Static and Nonlinear Time History Analyses.
The model has the following assumptions (see figure 1):
- RC Panels are...
