Say, an element will be removed when its strain reaches a specific value. However, I wonder if the strain can be captured and used...

Hi everyone, I am a beginner of OpenSees, and want to use it to model progressive collapse. The first problem I come across is that how to judge the failure of a element and how to remove it. I know the "remove" command can do this, but I don't know how to use it in detail. Can anybody sha...
