Dear all,

I have a model with nonlinear beam elements with fiber sections. when I do recorder on the nonlinear beam element for forces and deformations, what are the output that i get?

Thanks!!!!

you will get global forces and a blank file .. put a -xml instead of -file to see the descriptiion of the output when you are not sure.

you can always look at the source code as well, that it why it is open source and used so much in academia (look at the setResponse and getResponse methods);
