why translator connector can't reach to the end of the force - slip curve and reverse it's direction
why translator connector can't reach to the end of the force - slip curve and reverse it's direction
(OP)
hi all,
iam simulating bond between steel bars and concrete in asimple supported concrete beam subjected to bending ,i'm using translators elements to simulate bond using non linear force -slip relation ship, but when iget results I note that translators elements don't reach to the maximum slip which igave to the programm . they reach to specified slip and then reverse it's direction and slip in the opposite direction they can't reach to the end of the force - slip curve ,iwonder what are the reasons ? can any one help me please
