What is the best choice to evaluate the effect of shear ?

[parasismique]

Dear colleagues,

To evaluate the OpenSees capabilities for shear-flexion interaction. What is the best way to use. Rotation based shear failure model (RotationShearCurve) with (PinchingLimitStateMaterial) that controls the degrading column behavior
OR
Shear spring at the bottom defined using the limit state Material and limitCurve shear;

What is the best choice to study the effect of shear!

I appreciate your help.
