Python has a couple of profiling libraries--pyinstrument and cProfile--for finding out where all the time goes when you run a script. But, as far as I can tell, these libraries only tell you that the ops.analyze() command is called, not what happens therein. What you really want is to drill down into the state determinations … Continue reading How to Profile an OpenSeesPy Analysis

How to Profile OpenSees
Where does the time in a nonlinear finite element analysis go? For large models, solving equations dominates the analysis time, while for small to moderate models, constitutive models (state determination) dominate. It is impossible to know the relative cost of state determination and solving equations prior to an analysis. Profiling tools can tell you after … Continue reading How to Profile OpenSees
