Re: LayeredShell for shear walls

Dear Francesca,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
I understand, I will try to work directly with the .tcl file.
Thanks!

Re: LayeredShell for shear walls

Grettings dear STKO team/Francesca,
I am trying to use the SFI-MVLEM for the same shearwall above, but I am having some errors, I think related to the mesh but I do not know how to fixe them. Maybe I am not following a correct workflow in the model and I cannot find where is the cause. Could you ...

Re: LayeredShell for shear walls

Greetings dear STKO team, thanks for your reply.
Thanks a lot for the model modifications.
I will try to calibrate the parameters Gt and Gc, and see what happens.
Thanks a lot.

Re: LayeredShell for shear walls

Dear Francesca, thank you very much for the quick response.

I had used the user material for concrete becase I have seen it in some papers, but anyway, it does not work for me, so I have changed the usermaterial for this material DamageTC3D, and now the model is converging well (thanks for that ...

Re: LayeredShell for shear walls

Greetings, it is me again,
I have followed your recomendations, and the model has improved; but, still has convergence problems, and I do not Know the reason but I think that this issues are related with the rigid member (I have changed it into a triangle, following the tutorial of Dr Petracca), but ...

Re: LayeredShell for shear walls

Dear Francesca,

I want to thank you for the fast reply and for taking your time and took a look to my model; now the model is running better than before, still with some convergence issues, now in the cyclic analysis, but, it is running!. I have already done your suggestions and the model is ...

LayeredShell for shear walls

Hello everyone,
I am trying to model a simple shearwall, using a SectionLayeredshell, but there is no convergence at all for a nonlinear analysis (push over and cyclic), I am following the next procedure for the creation of the layered:
1_materials.nD.PlaneStressUserMaterial
2_materials.nD ...
