struct.geogrid.shear.stress

Syntax

f := struct.geogrid.shear.stress(p,inode)

Get the stress in the shear coupling spring at node inode (inode ∈ {1, 2, 3}). Shear stress is always positive and acts in the geogrid tangent plane. The shear direction is given by struct.geogrid.shear.dir.

Returns:

f - stress magnitude

Arguments:

p - pointer to a geogrid element

inode - node number in the element, inode ∈ {1, 2, 3}
