class ShearRetention:
    """The ShearRetention object defines the reduction of the shear modulus associated with
    crack surfaces in a Concrete model as a function of the tensile strain across the crack. 

    Notes
    -----
    This object can be accessed by:
    
    .. code-block:: python
        
        import material
        mdb.models[name].materials[name].concrete.shearRetention
        import odbMaterial
        session.odbs[name].materials[name].concrete.shearRetention

    The table data for this object are:

    - ϱclose for dry concrete. The default value is 1.0.
    - εmax for dry concrete. The default value is a very large number (full shear retention).
    - ϱclose for wet concrete. The default value is 1.0.
    - εmax for wet concrete. The default value is a very large number (full shear retention).
    - Temperature, if the data depend on temperature.
    - Value of the first field variable, if the data depend on field variables.
    - Value of the second field variable.
    - Etc.

    The corresponding analysis keywords are:
