• Gap Support Modeling Approach

    I am trying to convert a previous model from ADL Pipe to AutoPIPE. The previous model has two gap supports. It appears that ADL Pipe was able to analyze the model (Non-Linearly?) with the thermal case ONLY. When this scenario is transferred to AutoPIPE…
  • How gap works in supports?

    Hi, I am a novice user of Autopipe. I have a question regarding 'gaps' in different kind of supports. If I want a guide support, how to select value of gaps (small values or zero)? How those values work in the software? Or how those values of 'gap'…
  • RE: Slug flow modeling with guide spacing

    Hello Frederick, I apologize for the inconvenience, however in all dynamic analysis the structure is assumed to be linear and thus all gaps, friction and soil yielding is ignored. There is no way around this feature in a dynamic analysis. However…
