Most of SeismoStruct's frame element types follow the distributed plasticity model, whereby the user assigns a section and specific material models to the element, rather than moment-curvature curves.For a better understanding of the subject refer to the Theoretical Bouckground section of the help system. Finally, you will find useful information on how to define a new model in the tutorials of the user\s manual or at the SeismoStruct's educational videos in YouTube, e.g.
