*UNLOADING DATA

Provide unloading data for uniaxial behavior models in connectors or unloading data from uniaxial and shear tests for fabrics.

This option is used to define unloading response for the uniaxial behavior of connector elements when used in conjunction with the CONNECTOR BEHAVIOR, CONNECTOR UNIAXIAL BEHAVIOR, and LOADING DATA options.

This option is used to define the unloading response from a uniaxial or a shear test for fabric materials when used in conjunction with the FABRIC, UNIAXIAL, and LOADING DATA options. A fabric uniaxial test is specified with increasing strains along the specified yarn direction. A fabric shear test is specified with increasing shear strains as the fill and the warp yarns rotate with respect to each other.
