Deprecations

Deprecations#

The following features of OpenSeesPy are currently supported, but are highly discouraged:

  • Section subcommands (fiber, patch and layer) without an explicit section argument.

  • All hard-coded section integrations and shapes like WSection2d are removed. These classes do not add any functionality to the platform and introduce a burden for maintainers.

  • Pattern subcommands (Model.load(), Model.eleLoad()) without an explicit pattern argument.

  • All thermal elements, materials and elements are deprecated. The implementation introduced unnecessary code duplication.
