In this video I go over how to make a model in opensees using python, run an analysis, and get some results. We'll be looking at the classic "Basic Truss Example" from the OpenSees wikipedia.
The video ended up being longer than I would have liked, but I wanted to make sure everything was accessible for new users. I will try to make things a little more focused in the future.
