This command is used to construct a uniaxial smoothed Popovics-Saenz concrete material object.


uniaxialMaterial SmoothPSConcrete $matTag $fc $fu $Ec $epso $epsu $eta

$matTag unique material object integer tag
$fc concrete compressive strength (positive for compression)
$fu concrete crushing strength (positive for compression
$Ec initial tangent stiffness
$epsco concrete strain at maximum strength (positive for compression)
$epsu concrete strain at crushing strength (positive for compression)
$eta smoothing parameter (default value = 0.2).

Note: For this material class, the sensitivity parameters can be: fc, fu, Ec, epsco, epscu, eta
