This command is used to construct a series material object made up of an arbitrary number of previously-constructed UniaxialMaterial objects.
uniaxialMaterial Series $matTag $tag1 $tag2 ... |
$matTag | integer tag identifying material |
$tag1 $tag2 ... | identification tags of materials making up the material model |
The series material is represented graphically:
In a series model, stresses are equal and strains and flexibilities are additive:
NOTE:
- The series material ignores strain rate effects of its component materials
