This section provides the OpenSees models, analysis scripts, and structural design details developed for our research on retrofitting concrete MRFs with CBFs considering soil–structure interaction (SSI). The materials are shared to support transparency, reproducibility, and further research development.

Introduction Nonlinear static and dynamic analyses in OpenSees and OpenSeesPy often face convergence issues, especially in cyclic, pushover, and time history simulations. These problems can arise even with correctly defined models, due to solver settings, load increments, or numerical instabilities. This blog post introduces convergence control scripts designed specifically for OpenSees (Tcl) and OpenSeesPy (Python). […]
