  • Multiple hinges may be assigned along element length to simulate the distribution of plasticity along the member.
  • Hinges may be used to model strength loss, while link response should increase monotonically.
  • More modeling features are available for links, including energy-dissipation capability, a variety of hysteresis models, and such advanced seismic properties as isolation and Wen plasticity.

...

  • Additional comparisons between hinges and hysteretic links may be found in the Hinge FAQ article.
