analysis_name: sub name of the model (e.g run_1, no spaces or special characters)
element: list of element ids to record (comma separated, no spaces)
node: list of node ids to record (comma separated, no spaces)
primary_nodes: list of node ids to measure drifts (one node per story, does not include ground floor, ie 5 story building should have 5 items, comma separated, no spaces)
story_ht: list of story hts in whatever length units the model uses (one height per story, ie 5 story building should have 5 items, comma separated, no spaces)
period: period of the building

model_name=tayo
analysis_name=analysis_3
