A shallow foundation is modeled.Beams on Non linear Winkler Foundation (BNWF) model is used. after application of gravity load the pulse load is applied on the foundation as mentioned below.
loadConst -time 0.0
timeSeries Pulse 1 0 100000 1;
pattern Plain 2 1 {

is there anything wrong with the code? unable to plot a graph between number of cycles versus settlement of foundation.
