Beams chord rotation and section agregator

[ragopesa]

Hi Stko Team,

I hope you are doing great!

I'm using the RCJointModel3D to integrate in my model the possibility of joint failure. I would like to ask you for you help. Could you please share a Python Script for the postrocessor to extract the rotation (in this case shear) in all beams where RCJointModel3d is used? I would truly appreacitated

Another question, I have used a section agregator for my columns model to integrate the shear failure. How can I extract the moment shear in the postprocesor? if is not too much to ask, please, do you have any python script?

I have attached my model. Please, could you help me?

All the best,
Salvador

Hi STKO team,

My apologies, did you have the chance to take a look ?

The model uses zero-length elements behind the scenes. So you need (in the MPCORecorder) to ask for material.strain (for the rotation) and material.stress (for the shear).
Doing so, you will have results in the post processor to be visualized in the gauss plot. (Use material.stress and material.strain with 6 components, don't confuse it with the ones with 1 component of the trusses!)
You will be interested in the 4th component (rotation about global X) and the 5th component (rotation about the global Z). All the other DOFs are governed by an elastic behavior.
You can extract Shear-Rotation chars using the ExtractChart Command.

Another question, I have used a section agregator for my columns model to integrate the shear failure. How can I extract the moment shear in the postprocesor? if is not too much to ask, please, do you have any python script?

Just ask for section.force and section.deformation, use a gauss plot and extract data
