Sensitivity of beam-column element stiffness matrix to the crack parameters

In this article, a new cracked beam-column element stiffness matrix is proposed through static condensation method. Seven dimensionless coefficients are introduced and applied for a sensitivity analysis in different damage scenarios. The accuracy of this proposed stiffness matrix is verified, and co...
