Those are shear deformations from the plate section, not material strains at a point. Thank for your answer Prof. Scott. In the case of MembranePlateFiberSection strain_from_element(3)=root(5/6)*strainResultant(6) where strainResultant(6) is EpsXZ from the element and strain_from_element(4)=root(5/...

Hello, I have a question related with J2PlateFiber and with PlateFiber nDMaterials. At the source code in the method setTrialStrain(), which is called by SectionForceDeformation object (in my case I am using MembranePlateFiberSection), when it creates the strain tensor with the strains_from_element ...

Good Afternoon to all OpenSEES community. I have a question related with ShellDKGT element. I have done several tests comparing ShellMITC4 and ShellDKGT elements using LayeredShell sections with J2Plasticity material and I have similar results in Displacements Field and Tension Fields. The problem a...

Good morning, I have already created the issue on https://github.com/OpenSees/OpenSees/issues.

Thank you very much Mr. Scott

Good afternoon to all OpenSees Community. I have a question related with stress-strain recorders when using Shell elements and PlateFiber Section. I have questions using these commands: 1. recorder Element -file file_name -time -ele elem_number material gauss_point fiber layer stress 2. recorder Ele...

Good morning. The model is a rectangular simply suported plate in its four edges with a central load applied in positive z direction. I have done the same model with ANSYS using a von Mises yield criterium because I wanted to compare it with J2Plasticity model. I want a Bi-Linear material law so I h...

Good afternoon to all the OpenSees Community. I have a doubt about J2Plasticity nDMaterial. I have running simulations using this material with shell elements and I have problems when I reach plastic behaviour. I have not this problems with others nDMaterial like Drucker-Prager. I have seen the sour...

I am modeling a squared steel plate supported in its four corners with an incremental constant load applied in its center in a perpendicular direction. I have tested several shell elements and the material is J2Plasticity with a PlateFiber Section. It works fine for the elastic range using a Linear ...

I am modeling a steel plate with shell elements and J2Plasticity material and I still have the same problem. It is corrected for sure?
