The property values for nonlinear dampers are defined as follows:
PROPERTY PHYSICAL NDAMPER [property_name] LCOPT x1 f1 x2 f2 ... x20 f20
Where:
| LCOPT | = | Load curve option (0: transient dynamic analysis, 1: dynamic relaxation analysis, 2: both) |
| xn (n=1,20) | = | Velocity value of nth point on load curve |
| fn (n=1,20) | = | Force value of nth point on load curve |
