m_n_kappa.section.ComputationSectionStrain#

class m_n_kappa.section.ComputationSectionStrain(section, strain_value)#

Bases: ComputationSection

compute section under a constant strain-value

New in version 0.1.0.

Parameters:

section (Section) – section to compute
strain_value (float) – given strain-value to compute

See also

ComputationSectionCurvature: ComputationSection to compute values under linear-distributed strain

Notes

For the basic computation refer to ComputationSection.

Examples

A Section is defined as follows.

>>> from m_n_kappa import Rectangle, Steel
>>> steel = Steel(f_y=355)
>>> rectangle = Rectangle(top_edge=0.0, bottom_edge=10, width=10)
>>> section = steel + rectangle

The computation for a given strain started by initializing ComputationSectionStrain

>>> from m_n_kappa.section import ComputationSectionStrain
>>> computed_section = ComputationSectionStrain(section, strain_value=0.001)

The computed axial-force \(N_i\) is given as follows:

>>> computed_section.axial_force
21000.0

The lever-arm \(r_i\) is computed as follows:

>>> computed_section.lever_arm()
5.0

And the moment \(M_i\) is given as follows

>>> computed_section.moment()
105000.0

`maximum_positive_strain`()	maximum positive strain from associated material-model
`maximum_positive_strain_position`()	maximum positive strain from associated material-model
`moment`()	moment under the given strain distribution
`section_strains`()	strains of the associated material-model
`strain_positions`([strain_1, strain_2, ...])	collect all strain-positions between `strain_1` and `strain_2` (if given)

Attributes

`axial_force`	axial-force of the section in case of the given strain-distribution \(N_i\)
`bottom_edge_maximum_strain`	`StrainPosition` with maximum strain on bottom edge of section
`bottom_edge_minimum_strain`	`StrainPosition` with minimum strain on bottom edge of section
`edges_strain`	strains at the edges (bottom and top) of the section, computed from the strain distribution
`edges_stress`	stresses at the edges (bottom and top) of the section
`geometry`	geometry of the section
`material`	material of the section
`section`	basic `Section`
`section_type`
`strain`	applied strain
`stress_interception`	interception-value of the linear stress-distribution of the section
`stress_slope`	linear slope of the stresses over the vertical direction of the section
`top_edge_maximum_strain`	`StrainPosition` with maximum strain on top edge of section
`top_edge_minimum_strain`	`StrainPosition` with minimum strain on top edge of section

lever_arm()#

lever-arm of the section under the given strain-distribution \(r_i\)

Returns:: lever-arm of the section under a given strain-distribution
Return type:: float

Notes

In case of a Rectangle or a Trapezoid the lever-arm is computed as follows.

(1)#\[r_i = \frac{1}{N_i} \int_{z_\mathrm{top}}^{z_\mathrm{bottom}} \sigma(z) \cdot b(z) \cdot z~dz\]

In case of a Circle the lever-arm applies as the centroid of the circle. It is assumed that only reinforcement-bars are modelled as circles and therefore small in comparison to the rest of the cross-section.
