Error in Barslip Material

Post by hnaderi » Sun Jun 02, 2013 8:03 am

Hello Moderators

I've created RC frame with beam column joint element and I've used barslip material for barslip springs.

http://opensees.berkeley.edu/wiki/index ... P_Material
uniaxialMaterial BarSlip $matTag $fc $fy $Es $fu $Eh $db $ld $nb $depth $height <$ancLratio> $bsFlag $type <$damage $unit>

When I define value for anchorage length ratio <$ancLratio> (for example 0.8 ) , OpenSees2.4.0.exe stops and shows error.
This parameter is not defined for it.

I've used the following command:
uniaxialMaterial BarSlip $Col111BL 23.0 526.3 210000.0 616.3 1221.17 14.0 400.0 3 400.0 260.0 0.8 "Strong" "column" "NoDamage" "Mpa"
When I omit 0.8 (the anchorage length ratio) from upper line, The program runs without error.

What is the problem ?
Does OpenSees 2.4.0 puts this value as default 1.0 ?
