No need for section aggregator if you just used zerolength element to assign the shear springs

You can use both. This might help you.

You can use this document for that

Hi. I think I found the reference for this hysteretic material. Check "Modeling of cyclic shear behavior in RC members" by Angelo D'Ambrisi and Filip Filippou (1999). I think this is where this uniaxialmaterial was taken cchisari wrote: > Dear all, > > I would like to understand (and repor...

Hi, I am trying to model the on shown in the photo link below: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BzIal1rnyVw9UHR6UU5wM3JZcXc I am trying to model it by using a stdBrick element for the prismatic column (8 nodes defined - disregarding the vertical links) connected by 8 diagonal truss elements (I just...

Hi,

I am interested on the shear-flexure interaction on zero length element source code. My email address is pcgarcia@up.edu.ph. I am also working on the same topic.

Thanks,

Patrick

I also have the same question. But I think the best way is to just add a new hysteretic material with specific degradation rule

Hi! Can I also get a copy of your sourcecode? Thanks!

Hi, Need help on my new uniaxialmaterial. I already compiled and obtained a dll file. However, when I loaded it in Opensees, it says: WARNING: numeric analysis returns 1 -- Umfpackgenlinsolver::solve WARNING NewtonRaphson::solveCurrentStep() - the LinearSysofEqn failed in solve() StaticAnalysis::ana...

Hysteretic rule on loading, unloading, and reloading such as Takeda, Fukada, Clough, etc. in complement to uniaxialMaterial Hysteretic

Thanks for the help Sir! I was able to run the model now though the result is somehow different from the cyclic data that I have.

Yes SIr. The code I used is uniaxialMaterial Hysteretic $ColMatTagFlex $Mcr $Mdcr $My $Mdy $Mu $Mdu [expr -$Mcr] [expr -$Mdcr] [expr -$My] [expr -$Mdy] [expr -$Mu] [expr -$Mdu] $pinchX $pinchY 0 0 0 4 6; When I remove the 4 6 in the last part of the code, the programs terminates automatically when I...

For the rotation spring, is it possible to have a user-define limit curve for the uniaxialMaterial Hysteretic as when I try to run the code, it says to define limitcurve after $damage2 and DOF right after it. uniaxialMaterial Hysteretic $matTag $s1p $e1p $s2p $e2p <$s3p $e3p> $s1n $e1n $s2n $e2n <$s...

Thank you Sir!

I was able to model the springs. By the way, I have another question, is the shear spring incorporated in zerolength element ...
