forced-based- and displacement-based-elements

Post by hrodrigues »

I’d like to know if there any problem in mixing forced-based-elements with displacement-based-elements ?
In particular case mixing nonlinearBeamColumn to model a column and the zeroLengthSection to model the bond slip.
Best regards.
