Local Buckling

Post by omid1363 »

Hi,
Is there any way to model the local buckling of steel cross sections in OpenSees?
Is there any report or work on this topic in OpenSees?

Regards.

OpenSees would not be the best application for modeling local buckling of steel sections. LS DYNA is probably more suitable.
