Hi£¬
All seismoStruct users,Iam a new user of seismoStruct and I want to consult a question.I want to get the history time curve of sectional curvature for a specified section of nonlinear frame element in my model.However,I do not know how to get it.Can any body give me some useful suggestion?
Thank you in advance.
Best regards.

In the Pre-Processor, on the "Analysis Output" tab, simply check the elements whose curvature you wish to track in the "Output Stress-Strain Peaks" area of the ensuing tables.

Note that by default, no elements are checked for stress-strain output, so you need to check the appropriate boxes.

Once the Processor had finished the analysis, go to the Post-Processor and choose the "Stress and Strain Output" tab, then the "Frame Element Curvatures" tab.

Incidentally, I think that this posting would be of more benefit to others if it had been placed in the "03-Analytical/modeling capabilities" or "02-Getting Started with the Modeling" sections of the forum. It will always be of the maximum utility to make forum reports in the correct section.

I hope this helps, langxuzeng. Best of luck with your work.

P.S. Glad to see that the posting did get moved to the appropriate location of the forum.

Dear huffte,
Thank you very much.Your detailed answer really helped me.
