MPTE Load Case [MPTE]

General:

Nonlinear[Yes/No]:

Maximum # of Iterations: Iterations are used to ensure equilibrium is satisfied at each step of the analysis with the specified Force Tolerance and Displacement Tolerance.

Force Tolerance: Specify the convergence tolerance for force. You may want to use smaller values to get good results for large displacement problems. However, values that are too small may affect the convergence of the structure. Try decreasing the value until you get consistent results.

Displacement Tolerance: Specify the convergence tolerance for displacement. You may want to use smaller values to get good results for large displacement problems. However, values that are too small may affect the convergence of the structure. Try decreasing the value until you get consistent results.

Footing Load:

Footing Loading Points:

Center of the footing fixed as [0,0]. All values can be entered according to global coordinate system. This loading is only applied to the shell elements.

Pile Load:

All values can be entered according to global coordinate system. This loading is only applied to the pile heads.
