Hi,

I add a question regarding the computation of the shear force as done in
ScGeom. I remember that Bruno said that this procedure follows somehow what
is explained in pfc manual. I checked that formulation and I do not
understand why do we need to "update" (basically rotate) the shear force at
the current value before adding the new increment. The force is expressed in
the global system, so which is the reason for that?

Thanks for your explantion,
Chiara
