OpenSees 2012 - Nonlinear Analysis with Examples

Frank McKenna discusses a nonlinear analysis paradigm that can be applied to the OpenSees framework and software. The Open System for Earthquake Engineering Simulation (OpenSees) is a software framework for simulating the seismic response of structural and geotechnical systems.  A two day workshop on OpenSees was held at the Richmond Field Station, University of California-Berkeley on Aug15-16, 2012. It was sponsored by nees@berkeley and PEER.
