beamIntegration('Lobatto',tag,secTag,N)
Create a Gauss-Lobatto beamIntegration object. Gauss-Lobatto integration is the most common approach for evaluating the response of forceBeamColumn-Element (Neuenhofer and Filippou 1997) because it places an integration point at each end of the element, where bending moments are largest in the absence of interior element loads.
tag |
tag of the beam integration. |
secTag |
A previous-defined section object. |
N |
Number of integration points along the element. |
