    Obtaining Shear force in 2D element

    Hello, I am running a time history analysis to evaluate the seismic response of a frame, modelled with 2D wire B23 elements. The problem is that I cannot obtain the shear force in the columns, only SF1 from the results. Could you tell me how could I obtain the shear at each level?

    Creating constraints and BC in a node

    So there is no possible way to constrain two nodes and have a BC in one of them?

    Creating constraints and BC in a node

    Could someone help me with applying the Boundary conditions and a constraint in the same node? Has anybody experienced any problems with this?

    Creating constraints and BC in a node

    I cannot apply the BC on a reference point if that is what you meant. How should I deactivate the DOF more exactly?

    Creating constraints and BC in a node

    Hello, I have a steel frame for which I am running a Response spectrum analysis. I would like to impose that no elongation is present in the beam using a coupling constraint, but at the same time a boundary condition is defined in the nodes preventing the vertical displacement. Can you please...

    Plotting the stress at integration points

    Hello, I am running a static general analysis to determine the plastic behaviour of a double fixed steel beam. How could I obtain the stress distribution on the cross-section, if I have defined a number of 11 section points? I want to create a graphical representation with the elasto-plastic...
