Introduction
Get started with OpenSees.
opensees
is a Python package that provides an intuitive API for nonlinear
finite element analysis, implemented in C++ through the OpenSees framework.
OpenSees features state-of-the-art finite element formulations and solution
algorithms, including mixed formulations for beams and solids, over 200 material models, and an
extensive collection of continuation algorithms to solve highly nonlinear
problems.
In order to install opensees
just run the command:
python -m pip install opensees
The opensees
package can be used in three ways:
opensees.openseespy
Python module implements the API that has been developed by Oregon State.An interactive Tcl interpreter can be started by invoking the module as follows from the command line:
python -m opensees --help
