<t>Thank You Ricardo <br/>
1. I think i was understanding the concept of the constitutive law of the Gap-element wrong, as i understand it now, the gap elemnt represents the distance between the two frames (Positive while moving wright and then pounding occurs and negative while moving left and then ...

Gaplink / pounding
<t>Dear Seismosoft,<br/>
<br/>
I am modeling 2 adjacent frames and connected them with a gap-hook element to model the expansion joint. I started a dynamic time history analysis. <br/>
1. Pounding is in one direction therefore,therefore, I modified the Gap-Hook element to take displacements in one ...
