2016 OpenSees Student Innovation Prizes

...

We are pleased to announce the winners for the first annual QuakeCoRE OpenSees Student Innovation Prize Competition. Two $500 prizes were awarded in conjunction with the 2016 QuakeCoRE Annual Meeting recognizing significant earthquake engineering research that has been undertaken using the OpenSees finite element analysis platform. The winning submissions were those that best fit the judging criteria of “the most significant and/or practically-useful contribution to earthquake engineering analysis using OpenSees.”

James Maguire (University of Wollongong and University of Auckland) - James created a 3D visualisation tool in python that can be used to examine the deformed shape of an OpenSees model. This tool pulls the nodal coordinates from the OpenSees model file and reads the displacements from the recorded output. James' visualisation tool can be used to create interactive plots for 3D models via a series of slider that allow the user to increase/decrease the deformation magnification scale, change the camera viewpoint, and incrementally cycle through the time steps for a dynamic analysis. The visualisation tool developed by James is available here. The text file _ModelVisualiser description_.txt provides an overview of the tool and describes the python packages needed to run it.
