Post-processing for fiber section responses

This example is adapted from:

Reinforced Concrete Frame Pushover Analysis

Note

Since fiber cross-sections typically have a large number of fiber points, it is not recommended to save the responses of all elements when the number of elements is large. It is recommended to save only the responses of critical elements.

Plotting the strain distribution:

In version v1.0.21 and later, the SecMesh class added a function plot_response to visualize a given response, which automatically maps the response based on the coordinates of the triangular mesh.

import pickle

with open("data/my-section.pkl", "rb") as f:
    SEC = pickle.load(f)

fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(6, 5))
ax, cbar = SEC.plot_response(
    points=points,  # (num_fiber_points, 2)
    response=strain,  # (num_fiber_points,)
    mat_tag=None,
    cmap="coolwarm",
    ax=ax,
)
cbar.set_label("Strain", fontsize=12)
ax.set_title("Strain Distribution\n(Element 1, Section 1)", fontsize=14)
ax.set_xlabel("Y", fontsize=12)
ax.set_ylabel("Z", fontsize=12)
fig.tight_layout(rect=[0, 0, 1, 1])

plt.show()

We can also use imageio to create animations for all moments.

Here, we select concrete fibers (material tag with 1 and 2) using Boolean operations, and then specify a failure threshold for these two materials using a threshold parameter. Mesh elements exceeding the threshold are hollowed out to simulate failure.

import imageio.v2 as imageio

mat = sec_resp["matTags"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1)
cond = (mat == 1) | (mat == 2)  # concrete fibers only
# overall min strain across all time steps
vmin = sec_resp["Strains"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1, fiberPoints=cond).min().values
# overall max strain across all time steps
vmax = sec_resp["Strains"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1, fiberPoints=cond).max().values

with imageio.get_writer("images/fiber-section-strain.gif", mode="I", fps=6) as writer:
    for t in range(len(sec_resp["time"])):
        strain = sec_resp["Strains"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1).isel(time=t)

        fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(6, 5))
        ax, cbar = SEC.plot_response(
            points=points,
            response=strain.values,
            cmap="Spectral_r",
            ax=ax,
            mat_tag=[1, 2],  # concrete fibers only
            thresholds={2: (-0.006, 0.002), 1: (-0.015, 0.002)},  # failure thresholds, 2: cover, 1: core
        )
        cbar.set_label("Strain", fontsize=12)
        cbar.mappable.set_clim(vmin, vmax)
        ax.set_title("Strain Distribution\n(Element 1, Section 1)", fontsize=14)
        ax.set_xlabel("Y", fontsize=12)
        ax.set_ylabel("Z", fontsize=12)
        fig.tight_layout(rect=[0, 0, 1, 1])

        # Convert Matplotlib figure to image and append to gif
        fig.canvas.draw()
        image = np.frombuffer(fig.canvas.buffer_rgba(), dtype=np.uint8)
        image = image.reshape((*fig.canvas.get_width_height()[::-1], 4))
        writer.append_data(image)

        plt.close(fig)

Similarly, we can also visualize stress.

mat = sec_resp["matTags"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1)
cond = (mat == 1) | (mat == 2)  # concrete fibers only
vmin = sec_resp["Stresses"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1, fiberPoints=cond).min().values
vmax = sec_resp["Stresses"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1, fiberPoints=cond).max().values

with imageio.get_writer("images/fiber-section-stress.gif", mode="I", fps=5) as writer:
    for t in range(len(sec_resp["time"])):
        stress = sec_resp["Stresses"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1).isel(time=t)

        fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(6, 5))
        ax, cbar = SEC.plot_response(points=points, response=stress, mat_tag=[1, 2], cmap="jet", ax=ax)
        cbar.set_label("Stress", fontsize=12)
        cbar.mappable.set_clim(vmin, vmax)
        ax.set_title("Concrete Stress Distribution\n(Element 1, Section 1)", fontsize=14)
        ax.set_xlabel("Y", fontsize=12)
        ax.set_ylabel("Z", fontsize=12)
        fig.tight_layout(rect=[0, 0, 1, 1])

        fig.canvas.draw()
        image = np.frombuffer(fig.canvas.buffer_rgba(), dtype=np.uint8)
        image = image.reshape((*fig.canvas.get_width_height()[::-1], 4))
        writer.append_data(image)

        plt.close(fig)

Of course, we can also handle it ourselves.

# We can also extract stresses and strains for specific materials.
stress = sec_resp["Stresses"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1).isel(time=-1)
strain = sec_resp["Strains"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1).isel(time=-1)
y = sec_resp["ys"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1)
z = sec_resp["zs"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1)
mat = sec_resp["matTags"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1)

cond = (mat == 1) | (mat == 2)

matTag = 3 for rebar:

plt.figure(figsize=(6, 5))
scatter = plt.scatter(y[~cond], z[~cond], c=stress[~cond], cmap="jet", s=50)
plt.xlabel("Y Coordinate")
plt.ylabel("Z Coordinate")
plt.title("Stress Distribution\n(Element 1, Section 1, matTag=3)")
plt.colorbar(scatter, label="Stress")
plt.axis("equal")
plt.grid(True, linestyle="--", alpha=0.5)
plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()

mattag = [1, 2] for concrete:

plt.figure(figsize=(6, 5))
scatter = plt.scatter(y[cond], z[cond], c=stress[cond], cmap="jet", s=50)
plt.xlabel("Y Coordinate")
plt.ylabel("Z Coordinate")
plt.title("Stress Distribution\n(Element 1, Section 1, matTag=[1, 2])")
plt.colorbar(scatter, label="Stress")
plt.axis("equal")
plt.grid(True, linestyle="--", alpha=0.5)
plt.tight_layout()
plt.show()

We can also extract the force and deformation response at the cross-section level

defo = sec_resp["secDefo"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1, DOFs="My")
fo = sec_resp["secForce"].sel(eleTags=1, secPoints=1, DOFs="My")
print(defo.head())
