This command is used to construct an ElasticTubularJoint element object, which models joint flexibility of tubular joints in two dimensional analysis of any structure having tubular joints.
| element ElasticTubularJoint $Tag $iNode $jNode $Brace_Diameter $Brace_Angle $E $Chord_Diameter $Chord_Thickness $Chord_Angle |
| $Tag | unique element object tag |
| $iNode | first end node- it is always located on the chord axis |
| $jNode | second end node - it is always located on the chord wall |
| $Brace_Diameter | outer diameter of brace |
| $Brace_Angle | angle between brace and chord axis 0 < Brace_Angle < 90 |
| $E | Young's Modulus |
| $ Chord_Diameter | outer diameter of chord |
| $Chord_Thickness | thickness of chord |
| $Chord_Angle | angle between chord axis and global x-axis 0 < Chord_Angle < 180 |
EXAMPLE:
element ElasticTubularJoint 1 1 2 0.25 45 210E+09 0.5 0.016 45 # Tubular joint having tag 1 which interconnects nodes 1 and 2; brace diameter is 25cm; intersection angle is 45 degrees; Young's modulus of the material used is 210e9; outer diameter and thickness of the chord are 50 cm and 1.6 cm respectively; angle between chord axis and global horizontal axis is 45 degrees.
