Force Table
|
|
|
Check the member forces of inelastic hinges (Lumped, Distributed, Spring, and Truss Type) resulting from the time history analysis with the time step, in a spreadsheet format table.
Table Tool in MIDAS/Gen offers a variety of powerful built-in functions. Refer to Usage of Table Tool for detail directions: |
|
|
|
From the Main Menu select Results > Result Tables > Inelastic Hinges > Force
select Result Tables > Inelastic Hinges > Force in the Tables tab of the Tree Menu |
|
|
Upon executing the Inelastic Hinge > Force Table function, Records Activation Dialog prompts. Click after selecting time history loading conditions for output. Clicking will display the forces for all the loading conditions, and it may take long depending upon cases.
Note Refer to Results Table of "Usage of Table Tool" for the usage of Records Activation Dialog.
Refer to Usage of Table Tool and check the following data:
Force Table (Lumped)
Force Table (Distributed)
Elem: Element number
Hinge Location: Locations where inelastic hinges are assigned. For Lumped Type, it displays as i, j, i & j, FX. For Distributed Type, it displays according to the number of hinges.
Inelastic Hinge Prop: Inelastic hinge property number
Load: Time history load case
Force: Maximum force until the analysis time elapses
Time: Time at which the maximum member force occurs
Force Table (Truss)
Elem: Element number
Hinge Location: Locations where inelastic hinges are assigned. For Lumped Type, it displays as i, j, i & j, FX. For Distributed Type, it displays according to the number of hinges.
Inelastic Hinge Prop: Inelastic hinge property number
Load: Time history load case
Force: Maximum force until the analysis time elapses
Time: Time at which the maximum member force occurs
Force Table (Spring)
General Link
Prop. : General Link Property
Node1, 2 : Node numbers connecting a General Link
Inelastic Hinge Prop: Inelastic hinge property number
Load: Time history load case
Force: Maximum force until the analysis time elapses
Time: Time at which the maximum member force has occurs
