This command is used to construct a multi-linear elastic uniaxial material object. The nonlinear stress-strain relationship is given by a multi-linear curve that is define by a set of points. The behavior is nonlinear but it is elastic. This means that the material loads and unloads along the same curve, and no energy is dissipated.

$matTag | integer tag identifying material |
$strainPoints | array of strain points along stress-strain curve |
$stressPoints | array of stress points along stress-strain curve |
