Earthquake Engineering (EE-UQ) / Strain energy calculation
« on: April 30, 2021, 10:50:51 PM »
My question is a general question and is not directly related to EE-UQ, but I would appreciate it if you could help with this before I start using EE-UQ.

In OpenSees, is it possible to calculate total strain energy of a structure? For instance, in the generic n-story, n-bay example on the OpenSees website (link below), how would we calculate the total strain energy in a push-over analysis?
what would be different if we had concentrated plasticity?
