Hi,
I want to learn opensees for developing FE analysis tools. Can you suggest the suitable course
Hey @Thusiyanthan - welcome aboard!
If you want to use OpenSeesPy for FE, this is a good place to start…
We cover the theory of plates from first principles but we also use OpenSeesPy (and Pynite) to validate our code against.
I’m currently working on part 2 of this course that expands to shells - but you can make the jump to using OpenSeesPy for shell analysis pretty quickly after you’ve covered Part 1 above.
If you’re looking at more general structural analysis tools (frame analysis and the like), I have quite a few tutorials on that - just search OpenSeesPy in the search bar on the tutorials page.
If you want to build your tools into something like Blender, rather than spinning up your own UI, check out this course…
I have a version of the addon we build in this course running here with OpenSeesPy as athe analysis engine - here’s a variant of the addon I built as a proof of concept for modal analysis (again this uses OpenSeesPy for modal analysis).
And if you do want to build you own UI and desktop application, we’ve just published a tutorial on building engineering applications using PyQT…
Feel free to ask any follow up questions.
Best,
Seán
