Hysteretic material not working in OpenSees.

[yuhyeonlee]

Dear Frank,

I am getting this error :
Want: uniaxialMaterial Hysteretic tag? mom1p? rot1p? mom2p? rot2p? <mom3p? rot3p?>
mom1n? rot1n? mom2n? rot2n? <mom3n? rot3n?> pinchX? pinchY? damfc1? damfc2? <beta?>

while executing this command :
set n1 235
set s1 0.001146
set n2 400
set s2 0.08
set n3 150
set s3 0.09
uniaxialMaterial Hysteretic $IDreinf $n1 $s1 $n2 $s2 $n3 $s3 -$n1 -$s1 -$n2 -$s2 -$n3 -$s3 1 1 1 1

Also, I don't Know "Want:.." in OpenSees So, I want to know that is mean
I am using OpenSees 2.4.6 for Window 7

Thank you.

Did you define IDreinf ?

"Want" simply means it wants a specific format for that line of code --- so the format which you have entered your Hysteretic material in, is incorrect somehow. Look over it carefully. Maybe find an example of how it has been entered before. Make sure all your variables are in fact numbers.
