    problem with multiple displacement load step

    Now, I've run the analysis including a displacement condition of -2.19 for kp4 at the first load step, keeping conditions at kp1 and kp3, and kp4 is behaving as I want, but now the problem is that I'm getting a force reaction different to zero for kp4 at the beginning of the second load step...

    problem with multiple displacement load step

    Thanks Drej for your answer. Do you have any idea, how can I make then, that the second load step applies the displacement condition, starting from the deformed position after the first load step? Or this is just not possible?

    problem with multiple displacement load step

    I'm performing a two load step analysis. In the first step I'm pre-loading the structure at two key points (points 1 and 3) by applying a displacement condition. In the second step, once the structure is preloaded, I'm actuating the structure from a third key point (point 4), again by a...
