This command is used to construct a uniaxial material that simulates a pinched load-deformation response and exhibits degradation under cyclic loading. Cyclic degradation can be introduced using deformation and energy damage algorithms. Cyclic degradation can be imposed on reloading stiffness and backbone strength. The material in association with a RotationShearCurve material can monitor key deformation and forces in an associated frame element and utilize those values during analyses to adjust the force-deformation response. The material can be used in two modes: 1) direct input mode where all pinching and damage parameters are input; and 2) calibrated mode for shear-critical concrete columns where only key column properties are input for model to fully define pinching and damage parameters.


MODE 1: Direct Input

$matTag unique material object integer tag
$nodeT integer node tag to define the first node at the extreme end of the associated flexural frame member (L3 or D5 in Figure)
$nodeB integer node tag to define the last node at the extreme end of the associated flexural frame member (L2 or D2 in Figure)
$driftAxis integer to indicate the drift axis in which lateral-strength degradation will occur. This axis should be orthogonal to the axis of measured rotation (see $rotAxis in Rotation Shear Curve definition)

driftAxis = 1 – Drift along the x-axis driftAxis = 2 – Drift along the y-axis driftAxis = 3 – Drift along the z-axis

$Kelas floating point value to define the initial material elastic stiffness (Kelastic); Kelas > 0
$crvTyp integer flag to indicate the type of limit curve associated with this material.

crvTyp = 0 – No limit curve crvTyp = 1 – axial limit curve crvTyp = 2 – RotationShearCurve

$crvTag integer tag for the unique limit curve object associated with this material
$YpinchUPN floating point unloading force pinching factor for loading in the negative direction

Note: This value must be between zero and unity

$YpinchRPN floating point reloading force pinching factor for loading in the negative direction

Note: This value must be between negative one and unity

$XpinchRPN floating point reloading displacement pinching factor for loading in the negative direction

Note: This value must be between negative one and unity

$YpinchUNP floating point unloading force pinching factor for loading in the positive direction

Note: This value must be between zero and unity

$YpinchRNP floating point reloading force pinching factor for loading in the positive direction

Note: This value must be between negative one and unity

$XpinchRNP floating point reloading displacement pinching factor for loading in the positive direction

Note: This value must be between negative one and unity

$dmgStrsLimE floating point force limit for elastic stiffness damage (typically defined as the lowest of shear strength or shear at flexrual yielding). This value is used to compute the maximum deformation at flexural yield (δmax Eq. 1) and using the initial elastic stiffness (Kelastic) the monotonic energy (Emono Eq. 1) to yield. Input 1 if this type of damage is not required and set $dmgE1, $dmgE2, $dmgE3, $dmgE4, and $dmgELim to zero
$dmgDispMax floating point for ultimate drift at failure (δmax Eq. 1) and is used for strength and stiffness damage. This value is used to compute the monotonic energy at axial failure (Emono Eq. 2) by computing the area under the backbone in the positive loading direction up to δmax. Input 1 if this type of damage is not required and set $dmgR1, $dmgR2, $dmgR3, $dmgR4, and $dmgRLim to zero for reloading stiffness damage. Similarly set $dmgS1, $dmgS2, $dmgS3, $dmgS4, and $dmgSLim to zero if reloading strength damage is not required
