Can anyone tell me what are the big differences between RUAUMOKO and DRAIN, two dynamic analysis software?
Of what I know, DRAIN might be a finite elements program and RUAUMOKO a non-linear time-history analysis software... but what are the advantahes and disadvantages of each kind?
Thank you in advance

never used drain, the advantages of using Ruaumoko are : - you can choose several hysteresis models suitable for your structure. - It doesn't require "super" computer. - the results of analysis very accurate provided that you model the structure accordingly.
disadvantage : - not user-friendly - requires a lot of pre-analysis before modeling the structure so that you have any idea about the expected responses.
