Steel02

This command is used to construct a uniaxial Giuffre-Menegotto-Pinto steel material object with isotropic strain hardening.

Model.uniaxial(“Steel02”, name, fy, E, b)

fy float yield strength
E float Young’s modulus of elasticity
b = 0.0 float strain-hardening ratio (ratio between post-yield tangent and initial elastic tangent
R0 = 18 float
cR1 = 0.925 float Bauschinger evolution parameter
cR2 = 0.15 float Bauschinger evolution parameter
a1 = 0.0 float increase of compression yield envelope as proportion of yield strength after a plastic strain of a2∗(Fy/E0)
a2 = 1.0 float see explanation under a1.
a3 = 0.0 float increase of tension yield envelope as proportion of yield strength after a plastic strain of a4∗(Fy/E0)
a4 = 1.0 float see explanation under a3.
sigInit = 0.0 float initial stress
