In RSTAB there are some non-linear rod types. Almost every user has ever used a pull rod. Since RSTAB 6, it is also possible to provide normal beam rods with nonlinearities. For example there is the possibility to have bars on train or pressure fail or be broken if a certain force. That means that the rods are removed from the system. But what happens when the rods are charged? "Disappearance" the burden then?
with a very simple system I have time, the fate of RSTAB reviewed. In this case, it is RSTAB 7 but I think that will be exactly the same in all other versions of the behavior.
The following system of bar 4 is a tension bar.
The staff is provided with a linear load. To provoke a failure of the tension bar, the bar 3 (upper bar) to a temperature load 100K cooled. Which gives the tension bar pressure and falls out. At the Auflaferkräften you can see quite clearly that the load is not lost on the tension bar goes. Otherwise, no vertical support forces would be present.
This is the behavior of RSTAB for train and compression members clarified. As it is now but in beam rods with rod nonlinearities? The
to clarify a very similar system. The tension bar has been replaced by a bar staff with "loss in pressure."
Again, there is vertical support forces. The behavior thus resembles train and compression members.
Conclusion: If you use in RSTAB precipitated bars with stress, then you have to have no fear that loads "lost".
