1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 OVERVIEWThe Dynpac program module generates dynamic characteristics including eigenvectorsor natural mode shapes, eigenvalues or natural periods and modal internal load and stressvectors for a structure.
Because the Dynpac module provides the mode shapes and masses required for modaldynamic analysis, its execution is required prior to execution of any of the SACSdynamic programs.
1.2 PROGRAM FEATURESDynpac requires a SACS input model file or output structural data file and a Dynpacinput file for execution. The program creates a common solution file containingnormalized mode shapes, frequencies, internal loads etc. and a mass file.
Some of the main features and capabilities of Dynpac program module are:1. Full six degree of freedom modes supported.2. Guyan reduction of non-inertially loaded (slave) degrees of freedom.3. Generates structural mass and fluid added or virtual mass automatically.4. Supports lumped or consistent mass generation.5. User input lumped or consistent mass capability.6. Ability to convert model input loading to mass.7. Utilizes hydrodynamic properties and modeling from Seastate module.8. Plate and beam element structural density overrides.9. Member and member group fluid added mass property overrides.10. Determines modal mass participation to allow determination of number of modes
required for subsequent dynamic analyses.11. Ability to override plate added mass coefficient.12. Ability to override plate properties by plate group.13. Includes P-Delta capabilities in addition to cable elements.

2.0 DYNAMIC MODELING AND INPUTThe Dynpac program requires a SACS model file or output structural data file and aDynpac input file. The model file must contain minimal additional dynamic modelinginformation in order to perform the Dynpac analysis, namely, the dynamic analysisoption 'DY' must be specified in columns 19-20 on the 'OPTIONS' input line, jointretained (master) degrees of freedom (DOF) must be specified in the joint fixity columnson the appropriate 'JOINT' input line(s) and a 'LOAD' header must exist in the model fileeven if no loading is specified.
2.1 RETAINED DEGREES OF FREEDOMDynpac uses a set of master (retained) degrees of freedom, selected by the user, toextract the Eigen values (periods) and Eigen vectors (mode shapes). All stiffness andmass properties associated with the slave (reduced) degrees of freedom are included inthe Eigen extraction procedure. The stiffness matrix is reduced to the master degrees offreedom using standard matrix condensation methods. The mass matrix is reduced to themaster degrees of freedom using the Guyan reduction method assuming that the stiffnessand mass are distributed similarly. All degrees of freedom which are non-inertial (nomass value) must be slave degrees of freedom. After modes are extracted using themaster degrees of freedom, they are expanded to include full 6 degrees of freedom for alljoints in the structure. The expanded modes are used for subsequent dynamic responseanalysis.
Any joint degree of freedom, X, Y and Z translation and/or rotation, to be retained forextraction purposes must be designated in the model. A joint DOF may be retained byspecifying a '2' in the appropriate fixity column on the 'JOINT' input line. Specifying a '0'or leaving the fixity field blank designates the DOF as a slave degree of freedom to bereduced. For example, to retain the X and Z translation degrees of freedom, specify '202'or '2 2' in columns 55-57 on the 'JOINT' line defining the joint.Note: Columns 55, 56 and 57 pertain to global X, Y and Z translation
respectively and columns 58, 59, and 60 to X, Y and Z rotationrespectively.
Support degrees of freedom require no special modeling for dynamic purposes.Note: Specifying a ’2’ or ’0’ for a particular DOF, has no effect for
static analysis.
2.2 STRUCTURAL MASS
2.2.1 Generating Structural Mass Automatically
By default, Dynpac generates structural mass for modeled beam, plate and shell elementsautomatically. Structural masses are also generated if 'SA' is specified as one of theexecution options in columns 63-68 on the 'DYNOPT' line. Structural masses are notgenerated if option 'SO' is specified in columns 63-68.
Structural mass may be calculated as lumped or consistent mass by specifying 'LUMP' or'CONS' in columns 15-18 on the 'DYNOPT' line respectively. The lumped method placesall element mass at the nodes to which the element is connected while the consistent
Dynpac
2-2
approach assumes mass is distributed along the element. Although, the default method islumped, consistent mass may be desirable for structures immersed in fluid.
The following example indicates that the mass of modeled elements is to be calculatedby the program in addition to converting some load cases in the model file to mass. Theconsistent mass approach is to be used.
Note: Because the lumped approach does not generate mass moments ofinertia, the weight moment of inertia for each rotational DOFretained must be specified in the Dynpac input file when using thelumped approach.
2.2.1.1 Default Structural Density
For a beam element, the density specified on the GRUP input line is used as the defaultwhen generating structural mass automatically, unless density is specified on theMEMBER line. If structural mass is not specified the density specified on the 'DYNOPT'line is used.
The density specified on the PGRUP or PLATE input lines located in the model file areused for plate elements. For shell elements on the other hand, the density specified incolumns 19-25 on the DYNOPT line is used. The density specified on the 'SHELL' lineis ignored by the Dynpac program module.
2.2.1.2 Overriding Structural Density
The density for individual members, plates, plate groups, shells and member groups maybe overridden for mass generation purposes. The member, plate, shell or group name,along with the structural density override, are specified in the Dynpac input file on theMBOVR, PLOVR, PGOVR, SHOVR and GROVR override lines, respectively.
The following example specifies that the density of member 101-157, member groupMM1, plate A101 and plate group PG1 is to be 100.0 for the purpose of determining thedynamic characteristics.
Loading contained in the SACS model file can be converted to structural joint ormember mass automatically by specifying 'SA' as one of the execution options incolumns 63-68 on the 'DYNOPT' input line.
Dynpac
2-3
The direction of loads to be converted and whether the same sign or the opposite sign ofthe load is to be used when converting to mass must also be specified in the executionoptions. If loading in the model file defined in the X direction is to be converted to mass,then '±X' should be specified. To convert loading defined in the Y or Z directions, '±Y' or'±Z' should be specified as one of the execution options respectively. The sign of the loaddirection specified, denotes whether the mass calculated from the load line will have thesame sign as the load, designated by '+', or the opposite sign of the load designated by '-'.For example, when converting loading in the global -Z direction (such as gravity loading)to mass, the mass should have the opposite sign as the load specified (ie. positive mass).Therefore, execution options 'SA-Z' (or 'SO-Z') should be specified on the 'DYNOPT'input line.
The following example indicates that the mass of modeled elements is to be calculatedby the program in addition to converting load cases in the Z direction in the model file tomass. The sign of the mass will be the opposite of the sign of the load.
Note: When converting loading to mass, the sign of the net load for anyload vector must be such that no negative mass is introduced.
2.2.2.1 Designating Load Cases to Convert to Mass
When loads specified in the SACS model file or Seastate input file are to be converted tomass, only load cases specified on the LCSEL line(s) designated as dynamic load cases(ie. function ‘DY’) are converted. For example, the following designates that load cases4 and 5 are to be converted to mass by the program.Note: Either the SA or SO options must be specified on the DYNOPT
line in order to convert the designated load cases to mass.
Note: It is recommended to generate structural mass of the modeledstructure automatically rather than converting the gravity loadingcreated by Precede or Seastate.
2.2.2.2 Factoring Load Cases
Load Cases may be factored when converting to mass using the LCFAC line in theSeastate or model input file. In order to factor a load case, specify the load case andfactor on the LCFAC using option ‘DY’. For example, the following designates that 50%of load cases 4 and 5 are to be converted to mass.Note: Load cases 4 and 5 are specified on the LCSEL and LCFAC lines.
Joint weights not defined in load cases designated to be converted to mass, may bespecified as user defined concentrated joint weights in the Dynpac input file.Concentrated joint weights for X, Y and Z translational degrees of freedom and weightmoments of inertia for the X, Y and Z rotational degrees of freedom are specified alongwith the joint number on the JTWGT line and are converted to masses automatically.
The following designates that X,Y and Z weight of 10.0 is to be applied at joints 601 and603.
For structures immersed in fluid, the added or virtual mass and the mass of entrappedfluid can be generated automatically. The fluid mass, mudline elevation and the waterdepth must be specified on the DYNOPT line (in the Dynpac input file) in columns 26-32, 33-39 and 40-46, respectively. The normal and axial added mass coefficients formembers surrounded by fluid are input in columns 49-53 and 54-58 on the DYNOPTline.
By default, the virtual mass is calculated based on the added mass coefficient in columns49-53 on the DYNOPT line and actual member diameter unless an effective diameter isspecified in columns 73-78 on the MEMBER input line. For plate elements, the virtualmass is determined using the added mass coefficient specified in columns 49-53 unless avalue is indicated in columns 59-62 on the DYNOPT line.
The following specifies that the default added mass coefficient is 1.0 for beam elementsand 0.01 for plate elements (ie. effectively ignoring plate mass).
2.3.1.1 Member Overrides for Fluid Added Mass Generation
The effective member diameter used for added mass calculation may be overridden forindividual members or for member groups using the 'MBOVR' or the 'GROVR' linesrespectively in the Dynpac input file.
The following overrides the effective diameter of member 101-157 and member groupMM1 to 0.001, thus ensuring that no added mass is calculated for these members.
2.3.1.2 Plate Overrides for Fluid Added Mass Generation
The added mass coefficent for plates and plate groups may be overridden using thePLOVR and PGOVR lines, respectively in the Dynpac input file. The following specifiesthat the plate added mass coefficent for plate A101 and plate group PG1 is 0.001.
2.3.2 Generating Fluid Entrapped Mass Automatically
Entrapped mass is calculated for members designated as flooded in the model file basedon the actual diameter of the member.
2.3.2.1 Member Overrides for Fluid Entrapped Mass Generation
The flood condition may be overridden for all members on the DYNOPT line in columns47-48. The flood condition for individual members or member groups may be changedusing the MBOVR or the GROVR line images in the Dynpac input file.
The following overrides the flood condition of member 101-157 and member groupMM1 to non-flooded, thus ensuring that no entrapped mass is calculated for thesemembers.
Note: The flood condition specified on the ’DYNOPT’ line overrides anyexisting flood condition for all members in the model unless floodcondition is changed with subsequent ’MBOVR’ or ’GROVR’ lines.
2.4 HYDRODYNAMIC MODELING USING SEASTATEThe Seastate program can be used to account for the hydrodynamic affects of unmodeledstructural items and/or marine growth. Seastate updates the member lines to account forthe density and effective diameter due to marine growth specified on 'MGROV' lines inthe SACS model or in the Seastate input file. Member density is also updated to reflectthe effective density based on any density and/or cross section area overrides specified inthe Seastate input. The effective member diameter in columns 73-78 on the 'MEMBER'input line is updated to account for any local Y and Z force dimension overridesspecified (in addition to effects of marine growth).Note: Seastate must be executed with ’DYN’ specified in columns 56-58 on
the ’LDOPT’ line in the Seastate input file or with the
Dynpac
2-6
appropriate option specified in the Executive in order to generatehydrodynamic properties. The model updates are contained in theoutput structural data file created. See the Seastate User’sManual for a detailed discussion.
2.5 SIMULATING NON-LINEAR FOUNDATIONSBecause the dynamic capabilities in the SACS system use linear theory (ie. modalsuperposition), non-linear foundations must be represented with a linearly equivalentsystem. The equivalent linear foundation model must be incorporated into the SACSmodel for the purposes of dynamic analysis.Note: The Pile program module can be used to determine the length,
properties and offsets for equivalent pile stub elements used torepresent the soil-pile interaction. See the PSI/Pile programuser’s manual for a detailed discussion.
2.5.1 Including Linearized Foundation Automatically
The PSI program may be used to generate an equivalent foundation stiffness matrix orsuper-element to be used to represent the foundation for dynamic analysis. Theequivalent foundation super-element may be included as part of the model by specifying‘I’ in column 9 of the OPTIONS line in the model file or by selecting the appropriatesuperelement option in the Executive.
2.6 INCLUDING P-DELTA EFFECTSThe Dynpac program can include the effects of P-Delta on the dynamic characterisitcs ofthe structure. This feature allows the user to designate reference load case(s)representing static dead loading on the structure.
In order to include P-delta effects, the reference load cases must be designated in themodel file or the Seastate input file using the LCSEL line with the ‘PD’ option. Forexample, the following shows that dead loading defined by load cases DEAD, EQPT andAREA are to be used to determine the P-delta effects on the beam elements.
Load factors may be applied to the reference load cases using the LCFAC line. Forexample, in the following, 50% of load cases DEAD EQPT and AREA are used to obtainthe reference axial load.
LCSEL PD DEAD EQPT AREALCFAC PD 0.5 DEAD EQPT AREA
Note: Dead loads are typically used as P-Delta loads. For cableelements, the pre-tension load should be designated as the P-Deltaload.

4.0 DYNPAC TROUBLE SHOOTING
4.1 MODEL STIFFNESS MATRIXAs part of the dynamic characteristic analysis, the Solve module is used to generate thestiffness matrix properties of the structure. The structural model matrix created by Solvemust be 'Positive Definite' in order to determine the dynamic characteristics of thestructure. In general, if a degree of freedom for any joint or portion of the structure is notrestrained by fixity or by stiffness from other elements, the matrix will be 'Non'-PositiveDefinite'. For further discussion on matrix 'Non-Positive Definite', see the section titled'SACS IV Trouble Shooting' in the SACS IV user's manual.
The Solve module also determines the accuracy of the solution and reports it as the'Maximum Number of Significant Digits Lost'. In general, solutions with six or fewersignificant digits lost are sufficiently accurate while solutions with twelve or more lostare not. The SACS IV users's manual addresses possible causes for excessive numbers oflost significant digits.
4.2 MODEL MASS MATRIXThe structural mass matrix is developed by the Dynpac program module. Like thestiffness matrix, the structural mass matrix must be 'Positive Definite' in order for it to beinverted. When the mass matrix can not be inverted, the message 'Non-Positive DefiniteMass Matrix' is printed in the listing file. Some common reasons for the structural massmatrix becoming 'Non-Positive Definite' are as follows:
1. No degrees of freedom in the model are retained as master DOFs. The errormessage will normally refer to a degree of freedom for joint number 0.
2. All degrees of freedom are either retained or restrained as master DOFs so thatthere are no slave or unrestrained DOFs.
3. The mass for a particular degree of freedom is negative. This can occur whenconverting loads specified in the model file to mass using the 'SA' or 'SO' optionon the DYNOPT line. When negative loads in the model file are to be converted,ie. gravity loads, the '-X', '-Y' or '-Z' option should be specified so that the sign ofthe mass generated will be positive (opposite to that of the load).
4. A rotational degree of freedom is retained as a master DOF but no mass momentof inertia was generated (ie. lumped approach) or no weight moment of inertiawas specified in the input file for that DOF.
When a matrix 'Non-Positive Definite' occurs, the critical degree of freedom and the jointnumber are reported in the Dynpac listing file. For additional information on debuggingthe model, see the SACS IV user's manual.

5.0 COMMENTARY
5.1 STIFFNESS MATRIX REDUCTIONThe purpose of the Dynpac program module is to generate dynamic characteristics (modeshapes and frequencies) of a structure. A Guyan reduction is performed to reduce thestructural stiffness matrix K created by SACS IV as follows:
where the subscript m designates master degrees of freedom and the subscript sdesignates slave degrees of freedom. Knowing that F = K* or
the following relationships can be made.
If, by definition, no external forces are applied directly to the slave degrees of freedomsuch that Fs=0, *s can be expressed as follows:
Substituting for *s in equation (1) yields a relation that can be used to calculate theexternal forces on master degrees of freedom, namely,

where K'mm is the reduced stiffness matrix. Once the master degrees of freedom arecalculated, relation (2) may be used to determine the slave degrees of freedom.
5.2 MASS MATRIX GENERATION
5.2.1 Consistent Mass Approach
The mass matrix may be generated based on the lumped or consistent mass approach.The consistent mass generation approach represents the kinetic energy of the distortedelement by the element joint velocities, as represented by the velocities of all degrees offreedom at the joint. The deflection * and velocity *' along a member may be expressedas follows:
The kinetic energy is defined as:
where M is the mass per unit length. Taking

where [M] is the elemental mass matrix for the element. The elemental mass matrix isthen transformed into the global coordinate system and added to the overall structuralmass matrix.Note: Because the consistent approach takes into account the
distribution of mass along the element, the mass matrix createdincludes off-diagonal coupling terms between all degrees offreedom, including rotational DOFs.
5.2.2 Lumped Mass Approach
In the lumped approach, a diagonal mass matrix is created by dividing each element massinto equal components along the global X, Y and Z directions and concentrating thesemasses at the end joints. Rotational mass or mass moments of inertia are neglected alongwith any off diagonal terms of the mass matrix.Note: Because off diagonal terms are assumed to be zero in the lumped
mass approach, it is not recommended when the element mass is notthe same in all three directions such as when including effects offluid added or virtual mass acting normal but not tangential tothe element.
5.3 MASS MATRIX REDUCTIONAfter the overall mass matrix has been generated by either the consistent or lumped massapproach, it is partitioned into the same form as the stiffness matrix such that:
Note: The terms Mms and Msm = 0 and Mmm and Mss are diagonal matrices forthe lumped approach.
Differentiating equation (2) with respect to time yields,

therefore, the equation for kinetic energy becomes
which is a standard Guyan reduction resulting in
where M'mm is the reduced mass matrix.
5.4 CALCULATING RESULTSOnce the reduced stiffness and reduced mass matrices are generated, theeigenvalues/eigenvectors for the master degrees of freedom are extracted using thestandard Householder-Givens extraction technique. The resulting eigenvectors at themaster degrees of freedom are expanded to obtain results for the reduced or slavedegrees of freedom which allows the calculation of modal reactions and modal elementalinternal loads.
5.5 FLUID ADDED OR VIRTUAL MASSMorrisons's equation is used to determine the hydrodynamic loading due to fluid addedor virtual mass. The resultant force per unit length, F, has a component normal to theelement, Fn, and a component tangential or along the cylinder axis, Ft.
where Fn and Ft are functions of the fluid relative velocity Vrel, fluid acceleration V' andthe acceleration of the structure V'
s, and are given by the following for tubular elements:
where the term (Cm-1)(BD2/4)D is the fluid added mass term. The normal added mass, mn,and axial or tangential added mass, mt, may be rewritten as follows:

where Cvn and Cvt are the normal and axial added mass coefficients input into the Dynpacprogram, respectively.Note: Because the default tangential mass coefficient, Cvt, is zero,
tangential added mass is ignored by default unless the coefficientis overridden by the user.
The added mass normal to the member and the mass tangential, if applicable, are brokeninto global X, Y and Z direction masses then added to the elemental mass matrix.Including the hydrodynamic inertial terms due to structural acceleration in the massmatrix, results in the automatic inclusion of acceleration dependent hydrodynamic forcesincluding relative acceleration effects.
The global X, Y and Z components, mnx, mny and mnz, of the normal fluid added or virtualmass and the X, Y and Z components of the tangential fluid added mass, mtx, mty andmtz,are taken as:
where "x, "y and "z are the angle between the plane normal to the element and the globalX, Y and Z axes respectively. See the following figure.

6.0 SAMPLE PROBLEMSThe structure shown in Figure 1 was used to illustrate various capabilities of the Dynpacprogram. Three separate Dynpac analyses are illustrated:
1. The dynamic characteristics of the structure submerged in water weredetermined using the consistent mass approach. Seastate override lines wereused for the hydrodynamic modeling. The linearized foundation elements wereincluded in the model file.
2. Sample Problem 2 is the same as Sample Problem 1 except that instead ofmodeling linearized pile stubs, a linearized foundation superelement was used.The ability to convert loads from any load case to mass without copying the loadinto LC 1 is also illustrated.
3. The natural modes of the deck in Figure 1 were determined using the lumpedmass approach. Additional joint weight was added in the Dynpac input file.

6.1 SAMPLE PROBLEM 1The following example illustrates the use of the Seastate and Dynpac programs todetermine the dynamic characteristics of a structure submerged in a fluid.
The structure in Figure 1 stands in 82.02 feet of salt water (density 64.2 lb/ft3). Themember mass, mass of marine growth, mass of entrapped water and virtual or addedmass were calculated automatically using the consistent mass approach. The Seastateprogram was used to determine the effective member properties including diameter,density, etc. to account for the hydrodynamic properties of the members. Additionalmember and group overrides were specified in the Dynpac input file.
A load case consisting of miscellaneous loads, was specified in the SAC input file toaccount for unmodeled members and equipment weights that could affect the dynamiccharacteristics of the structure.
Dummy piles used to simulate the soil/pile interaction was developed using the Pileprogram and were added to the model. The degrees of freedom to be retained fordetermining the generalized masses and the eigenvectors were designated (usingPrecede) by specifying a '2' for the joint DOF.
A Seastate input file containing override lines to account for the hydrodynamics ofunmodeled members and appurtenances was used as the SACS input file. 50% of loadcase MISC in the model file contains miscellaneous loads to account for unmodeledmembers and equipment and is converted to mass.
The following is a portion of the Seastate input file:

6.2 SAMPLE PROBLEM 2The following example illustrates the ability to use an equivalent foundation super-element and to convert loading in any load case to mass, therefore eliminating the needto modify the model for dynamic analysis purposes. Only the degrees of freedom to beretained for determining the generalized masses and the eigen vectors were specified inthe model by inputting a '2' in the appropriate joint fixity column.Note: Because retaining DOFs has no effect on the model for static
analysis, the same model file can be used for static and dynamicanalyses.
The following is a portion of the model file to be sent through Seastate for hydrodynamicmodeling. The differences between the model requirements for sample 1 and this sampleare discussed below:
A. Unlike Sample Problem 1, pile stub members 2-102, 4-104, 6-106 and 8-108 arenot included in the model. An equivalent foundation super-element is to be usedas specified on the OPTIONS line. Therefore, pile stub section 'PILSTUB' andpile stub group 'PST' are not required in the model input file.
B. The retained degrees of freedom are specified by '2' in columns 55-60 on theappropriate JOINT lines.
C. The pile joints at the mudline are designated with PILEHD fixity.
As in Sample Problem 1, Seastate and Dynpac were executed in succession to determinethe dynamic characteristics of the structure. The output structural data file created bySeastate containing the effective member properties was used as the SACS input file forDynpac.

The following is the SACS input file used for the analysis:
The following is a description of the SACS input file:
A. The analysis option specified in columns 19-20 on the OPTIONS line is 'DY'.
B. The loads of load cases 1 and 2 account for the weight of unmodeled membersand equipment and will be converted to masses by Dynpac. The weight of thereciprocating machinery for example, was modeled as joint loads at joints 509and 510.
C. Joints 1, 301, 303, 305 and 307 are pinned in the global X, Y and Z directions(joint fixity 111000), the conductor bottom joint 1 is also restrained againstglobal Z rotation.
