Advanced modeling capabilities provide for the characterization of component-level [force-deformation|kb:Material nonlinearity] relationships, including the capture of strength and stiffness degradation during cyclic response. Analysis methods integrate the effect of [geometric nonlinearity|kb: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|kb:Nonlinear] performance-based analysis and design, created by Dr. Graham H. Powell, University of California at Berkeley Professor Emeritus of Civil Engineering. |
