thread569-340613: ANSYS APDL, unconstrained model error.
hello
I have modeled beam as smeared model .Three point load is to be applied on beam. I have some problems regarding material properties and load steps.
1. what should be the value of shear transfer coefficient for open and closed crack?
2. Where I put data for stress-strain curve( using MacGregor1992 relationshihp)? maim menu - define material property-material model-structural-nonlinear -elastic- multilinear elastic    is this correct path?????
3. Where I put value of yield stss of reinforcing steel? what should be value of tangent modulus?
4.How total load should be applied with different load steps and each load step should have different load increment.
5. How I set nonlinear convergence criteria??


Kindly help me.
