access to new components

Hi silvia
I'm working on partially restrained Connection especially SMA connection. I've allready read a thesis by BERK TAFTALY[2007] that developed new components (uniaxialMaterial PRConnection - uniaxialMaterial SuperelasticSMA & recorder Energy).
apparently these Commands aren't available in Opensees, How can I access those procedure/syntax?
I'll really appreciate it if you could help me.

Hi Frank
Tanks for your reply.
I asked them but still didn't Reply. is there another option to access these codes?
I really need these for my thesis especially "uniaxialMaterial PRConnection" & "recorder Energy".
I'll really appreciate it if you could help me.
Thanks & best regards.
