4.2.3.8. Flexure-Shear Interaction Displacement-Based Beam-Column Element¶

This command is used to construct a dispBeamColumnInt element object, which is a distributed-plasticity, displacement-based beam-column element which includes interaction between flexural and shear components.

element('dispBeamColumnInt', eleTag, *eleNodes, numIntgrPts, secTag, transfTag, cRot, <'-mass', massDens>)

`eleTag` (int)	unique element object tag
`eleNodes` (list (int))	a list of two element nodes
`numIntgrPts` (int)	number of integration points along the element.
`secTag` (int)	identifier for previously-defined section object
`transfTag` (int)	identifier for previously-defined coordinate-transformation (CrdTransf) object
`cRot` (float)	identifier for element center of rotation (or center of curvature distribution). Fraction of the height distance from bottom to the center of rotation (0 to 1)
`massDens` (float)	element mass density (per unit length), from which a lumped-mass matrix is formed (optional, default=0.0)
