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.

section Bidirectional $secTag $E $Fy $Hiso $Hkin <$code1 $code2>


$secTag unique section tag
$E elastic modulus
$Fy yield force
$Hiso isotropic hardening modulus
$Hkin kinematic hardening modulus
$code1 section force code for direction 1 (default = Vy)
$code2 section force code for direction 2 (default = P)

NOTES:

  • The bidirectional section is a suitable base isolator model and should be used in conjunction with a ZeroLengthSection element to this end.
  • The implementation is a generalization of the uniaxial return map algorithm for rate independent plasticity (page 45, Simo and Hughes, 1998)
  • The optional code1 and code2 values correspond to the beam cross-section analogy (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)
