extracting the capacity curve from seismobatch

Hi
am doing a static pushover analysis and am using the seismobatch to extract the results. How can I extract the capacity curve from the seismobatch(base shear vs roof disp.) Thanks a lot

Re: shear link model

<t>Thanks a lot for your notes. I put the rigid arm properties like this (100m * 5mm) to be sure that it will be rigid enough to make sure all the deformations happen only in the springs (shear link). This was the same reason to use rigid arms before and after the two inelastic springs.Again, is it ...

Difference between lumped mass and permanent load

<t>Hi all<br/>
Do anyone knows the difference between the lumped mass on a joint and a vertical load (permanent load) on a joint? I do know that I have the option to input the vertical permanent gravity loads or input it as an additional mass/length in the SECTIONS part. But after entering the ...

shear link model

<t>Hi all<br/>
<br/>
Am modelling a braced concrete frame with a vertical shear link (eccentric bracing) and I modelled the behaviour of the shear link by a link element with zero length carrying only F3 and M2 and the other DOF set to be a very high value representing two springs; a translational ...

Hi, I want to add another strain hardening to the trilinear curve to be 4 branches. How can I do it ?
Thanks a lot
