This command allows the user to construct a Bidirectional section, which is a stress-resultant plasticity model of two coupled forces. The yield surface is circular and there is combined isotropic and kinematic hardening.

NOTES:
- The implementation is a generalization of the uniaxial return map algorithm for rate independent plasticity (page 45, Simo and Hughes, 1998)
- The bidirectional section is a suitable base isolator model and should be used in conjunction with a ZeroLengthSection element to this end. It can also be used in a nonlinear beam element to define stress resultant plasticity at an integration point.
- The optional code1 and code2 values correspond to the beam cross-section analogy with respect to the local axes of the calling element (P, Vy, and Vz = force along section local x, y, and z axes, respectively; T, My, and Mz = moment about section local x, y, and z axes, respectively)
