MultiaxialFiber#

A MultiaxialFiber section is used to model a Frame section with shear deformation. The section is defined by a collection of fibers that discretize the cross-section.

class xara.FrameSection("MultiaxialFiber", shape, *, fibers)

Create a frame section that integrates the response of xara.UniaxialMaterial objects distributed over the section shape.
