Hello,
I am currently engaged in a research project focusing on advanced dynamic structural analysis using OpenSeesPy. I am exploring methods to directly save and reload a complete OpenSeesPy model—including all nodes, elements, loads, mass, and material properties—without the need to reconstruct the model from scratch each time. Although I have considered approaches such as utilizing Python's pickle module for serialization, I have encountered limitations with this method, particularly regarding the serialization of complex model objects and the apparent absence or unreliability of functions like getDomain.
I would greatly appreciate any insights, best practices, or references to methodologies and tools that could facilitate efficient model serialization and reconstruction within OpenSeesPy while ensuring that all critical structural and analysis parameters are preserved.
Thank you for your assistance.
Best regards,
Omar Oyarce.
