a little question

Post by dengyulin20003 »

in SAP2000 we can direct add p-delta force for a element in order to consider the geometry stiffness under dead load,
Does opensees has this kind of function?
I want to model the suspension bridge,if not ,I want to modify the source code of ElasticBeam3d. Can you tell me how to operate?
thanks a lot!

in opensees you include Pdelta effects in the geometric transformation.
