Hi,
We are working on a pushover analysis for a ship arrestor design using StaadPro Advanced module. We have run 2 analysis:
Type 1-2.std (simplified model) - the analysis completed and the results look ok
Type 1-3(Center).std (more complex model) - we were requested to carry out an analysis based on more frames to represent the actual design condition. The analysis did not complete and stop at 31.14%. And it gave warnings about very high compressive force in some of the members and the analysis cycle exceeds allowable limit.
Could you please have a look the attached models and advise what is the problem with the more complex model?
