Hi Josh,
Thank you very much for your reply.
First of all I should clarify that I am modeling a bridge structure.
1) I did reduce the structural load to linear level where the plastic rotations at the most critical hinge is negligible. Although both nonlinear and linear analyzes showed almost...

Can anyone please explain that why SAP2000 results in higher deformation through linear time history analysis in comparison to its corresponding nonlinear time history analysis especially where plastic hinges form which is really weird.
Thank you very much in advance.
Hi everyone,
I am trying to get the history output of strain and stress tensor components at a node. However after analysis is finished no such data are saved in the result section. I think Abaqus only gives the stress and strain for elements and not at nodes. Any help would be highly...
