Introduction
MATLAB based graphical user interface (GUI).
Pre- and post-processing for OpenSees and
OpenFresco.
Design toolboxes: NSP, PBEE, AISC design
checks, AISC database, response spectra for
linear and bilinear systems and signal filtering.
Both MATLAB Pcode and self-executable
versions are available for Windows & Mac.
Being used by researchers from Asia, US,
Canada, South America and Europe.
Motivations
Replace the TCL text input with graphical input.
Most researchers use MATLAB to do the postprocessing, and MATLAB/Simulink is the typical
framework for implementing hybrid simulation
tests.
OpenSees Navigator will create the OpenSees
(analytical/hybrid) model and graphically display
the results before, during or after a test.
Provides many robust plotting algorithms and is
very effective in generating the plots for
engineering applications.
Flexible to use and requires no programming
skill.
