PERFORM-3D is a sophisticated modeling and analysis software useful for the performance assessment of structural systems. Advanced modeling capabilities provide for the characterization of component-level force-deformation relationships. Strength and stiffness degradation may be captured during cyclic response. Analysis methods integrate the effect of [geometric nonlinearity]. Also of note is an output-animation feature which displays color-coordinated and enveloped limit-state relations.
PERFORM-3D is an ideal tool for nonlinear performance-based analysis and design, created by Dr. Graham H. Powell, University of California at Berkeley Professor Emeritus of Civil Engineering.
