7-17 Feb 2011
Need for computational simulation in

earthquake engineering.
There are two broad needs
for
computational
simulation in earthquake
engineering.
Research focused: using
simulation to improve
understanding of
a.Structural systems
b.Geotechnical systems,
c.Natural disasters like
tsunamis.
7-17 Feb 2011
for engineering design: use of computational simulation to make

predictive (and probabilistic) estimates of performance as a basis for
design decisions.
- Advanced computational simulation to include the nonlinear behavior
and realistic failure modes of structures and soil systems.
The two uses, research and design applications, should not be

decoupled, because the research needs to drive the practice, but the
practice needs to inform the research.
7-17 Feb 2011
Overview of the application
This service provides tool for

modeling, analysis , pre and post
processing using the same single
tool.
For analysis we are using
OpenSees which is already ported
on Garuda, is a freeware and is
worldwide accepted framework to
simulate the performance of
structural
and
geotechnical
systems subjected to earthquakes.
OpenSees required input data file
in the form of tcl script which can
be generated using modeling
software called GID and by
incorporating
various
problem
types into it. Also GID can be used
for postprocessing the results. It is
a Licensed software.
In this way Modeling and analysis
of any complicated structures
becomes very easy and user
friendly

Deliverables of OpenSees On Grid Garuda
To make OpenSees grid enabled
To develop user friendly UI /Interface or web portal for OpenSees so that

users can directly submit their jobs using this tool.
To demonstrate various test examples on OpenSees and make it available

on portal, which will help user for clear understanding of the service.
Also the above mentioned test examples will vary from simple small scale
problems to the problems which deals with large complex data which will
clearly illustrate the capability of the system opensees + Grid
OpenSees input file format is tcl. A program or tool which will convert
almost all available input data/format to the OpenSees format will be made
available with OpenSees
Tool for visualization of analysis results i.e. for postprocessing.

AGSG [Automatic Grid Service Generator]

Introduction :
The Automatic Grid Service Generator (AGSG) is a web tool to
automatically generate Grid services. This tool can convert an existing
application or executable file(s) as a Grid Service(s).
It is useful for application developers or programmers who wish to deploy
their application components as Services on the grid.
AGSG Features:
The Automatic Grid Service Generator tool can generate Grid services from
already existing executable files.
It frees the user from the complexity involved in making a grid service .
It is a Web Based tool
User Friendly GUI.

2. Bridge Example
A two-dimensional nonlinear model of the Bridge, including the
superstructure, piers, and supporting piles was developed using OpenSees
The bridge piers are modeled using 2-D nonlinear material, fiber beamcolumn elements formulated using the flexibility approach based on the
exact interpolation of the internal forces The column cross-section is
discredited into concrete and steel fibers. A sinusoidal incident wave is
applied at the base through a set of nodal equivalent forces.

Concluding Remarks
Very useful for developing the data needed to eliminate testing
and replace it with simulation for earthquake engineering research
and practice.
The significance of the present work is to create the awareness
among the researchers, academicians and structural consultants
regarding the simulation of Structural and Geotechnical systems
subjected to earthquakes. OpenSees is intended to serve as the
computational platform for research in performance-based
earthquake engineering.
Will help in advances in computational simulation for earthquake
engineering and will have trans-formative effects on engineering
design, operations and maintenance of structures, and regional
planning for disasters (natural and others) and mitigation of
disasters.
This study will improve design and allow optimization, including
design for target system reliability.
This research has direct benefits in terms of security, physical
protection, and systematic planning for disasters.
