OpenSees Code for cyclic Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Columns: Reliable, Experimentally-Validated Simulation for Engineers and Researchers

This OpenSees Hysteresis Analysis Package is designed for the detailed simulation of reinforced concrete columns under cyclic (hysteretic) loading. This package is a professionally validated solution, rigorously benchmarked against real-world experimental data to ensure accuracy and reliability in every result.

Key Features:

Experimentally Validated: Results are cross-checked with published experimental tests, giving you confidence that your simulations reflect actual structural behavior.

Comprehensive Hysteresis Analysis: Capture complex nonlinear behaviors of reinforced concrete columns under cyclic and seismic loading, including stiffness degradation and energy dissipation.

User-Friendly: Ready-to-run OpenSees scripts with clear documentation and modular structure, allowing easy adaptation to your specific column geometry, material properties, and loading protocols.

Professional & Academic Value: Ideal for structural engineers designing earthquake-resistant structures, researchers conducting parametric studies, and educators teaching nonlinear analysis concepts.

Save Time: Skip the trial-and-error of developing your own scripts, get straight to analysis and interpretation.

Enhanced Learning: Benefit from well-commented code and included example cases, making this package suitable for both self-study and classroom use.
