What should I do first to perform a TH analysis of a model subject to initial displacement and velocity using SAP2000? Since SAP only allows me to define initials as the end state of a previous TH.
I'm user of Sap2000nonlinear for a long time and i must admit i as suprised by your question.Personally i don't think it's possible to do that.You can assign initial disp easily but not initial accel or vel.Sorry
