Elastic Material

Post by joseacs »

Hi everyone.

I want yo asign an elastic axial response to a Zero length element. When I define an Elastic Uniaxial Material (link to the OpenSees Wiki page: https://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/inde ... l_Material), in the parameter E, should I put the Young's Modulus or EA? where A is the cross section area.

Thanks-.
