Hi Mohammadf,
Thank you very much for keeping your time on my issue. Could you tell in more detail for me, please?
In my problem, I want to model FRP material as an elastic-brittle material, it has 2 kind of modulus, that are, longitudinal and transverse.
So how can I do that?

Hi
i think you can use the MinMax Material command to model the brittle behaviour of FRP :http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... x_Material
