About MPCurveParams of ReinforcingSteel

Post by davidjingyu »

Dear

How can I set the MPCurveParams in ReinforcingSteel model.

As the default value for -MPCurveParams is 0.333 18 4.
and these parameters are sensitive to the structural behavior.

Does it have any limitations or literature support to set these parameters?

Can i set -MPCurveParams 0.5 18 4.

Thank you very much!
