point plasticity element

Post by Robs » Tue Aug 17, 2004 5:48 am

Dear group,

Can I have a point plasticity element as it is which will take the input as the idealised
1.moment-rotation,
2.shear force-shear deformation,
3.axial force -axial deformation
curves just like SAP2000 Nonlinear Does.

Particularly I dont want to use Zerolength element ,Beam with Hinges,or non-linear beam column element.

I came to know there is an element recently added to opensees.

Hope anyone of you can help me.
