total displacements in the post processor

[jpereirasan]

Dear STKO Team
I am performing a dynamic analysis using the UniformExcitation command, I understand that this command gives as a result the relative displacements in the post processor, how could I see the total displacements in the post processor?

Kind regards.

Hi, You can add the ground displacement with the relative displacement to get the total displacement. STKO postprocessor does not give you the total displacement directly, however it is pretty easy to do it in spreadsheet or STKO-Python API script. Please watch the webinar given in the link below.
