Hi

what is the difference between plasticdeformation and basicdeformation in nonlinear elements?
for each elements returns 3 value each of thats, what are these values?

Tnx

Hi
How can I get elements demend and save that in the variable instesd of record that in the file.
I dont want to record demend in file and want to save demends in the variable in the analysis step.

I want to save plastic rotation of nonlinear elements

Tnx

I don't want to record it in file. I want to save it in the variable

I mean rotation in the end of the nonlinearbeamcolumn element.

Hi everybody
Is there any thing like nodeDisp to get rotation of elements nods.
I want to save rotation of elements in the variable, How can I do it?

but it is not possible to define integration point in elasticbeamcolumn element

you mean I should define node in middle of element, that means 2 node with 1 element between them converted to 3 node with 2 element?

Hi everybody. How can I record output in special station of a element? e.g. I want to record moment in middle of the element

Hi everybody
How i can have linear analysis with fiber section?

Hi everybody I want to verify a Experimental program that compares FRP and steel bars with together in a simply supported beam and subjected to a point load at mid-span. i have used nonlinear element, concrete01 and seel01 materials. my results are very different . Is it correct to use opensees for ...

I wanted to have bar made from FRP in concrete section. but i thing i can to model it. for example:
uniaxialMaterial Elastic 1 E
uniaxialMaterial MinMax 2 1 -min 0.0 -max fy/E
I thing material 2 is suitable for FRP bar with fy and E

Is it for wraps?? I want it as bar. there is any way for that?

Hi
I want to model a RC section with FRP instead of steel bar. which material is better to define for FRP? for example what is the material commend for a FRP with yield strength ,fy and Modulus of elasticity, E?

tnx vesna, I did that and worked correctly

Hi everybody
I want to model the frame with beam column connections that are release for moment. how can i do that?
