Asymmetric Materials

Post by mn_24 » Sun Mar 07, 2010 4:11 pm

Hi,

I'm new to Opensees, I've looked through the manual and I didn't see how a material could be defined which has asymmetric behavior.

My model has a number of different springs which all behave differently depending on the direction of the loading.

If you have any suggestions I'd really appreciate it
Thanks.
