5.6.1.3. Parallel DisplacementControl¶
- integrator('ParallelDisplacementControl', nodeTag, dof, incr, numIter=1, dUmin=incr, dUmax=incr)
Create a Parallel version of DisplacementControl integrator. In an analysis step with Displacement Control we seek to determine the time step that will result in a displacement increment for a particular degree-of-freedom at a node to be a prescribed value.
nodeTag
(int)tag of node whose response controls solution
dof
(int)Degree of freedom at the node, 1 through ndf.
incr
(float)First displacement increment \(\Delta U_{dof}\).
numIter
(int)Number of iterations the user would like to occur in the solution algorithm. (optional)
minIncr
(float)Min stepsize the user will allow \(\Delta U_{min}\). (optional)
maxIncr
(float)Max stepsize the user will allow \(\Delta U_{max}\). (optional)
Use this command only for parallel model.
Warning
Don’t use this command if model is not parallel, for example, parametric study.
