Meshing with surface-partitioned block
Meshing with surface-partitioned block
(OP)
Hi, I am analyzing 3D pavement dynamic response using abaqus. One trouble came up during model meshing. On pavement surface, partition has to be made for applying traffic loading. However, after surface is partitioned, it is not allowed to mesh model with structured brick element(Hexehedron). Is there someone konwing how to avoid this trouble? Thanks.

But for single axle with dual tires (non-equal loading area), it makes model building and meshing much more time-consuming.
Also, I was wondering if you happen to know how to apply non-reflective boundary conditions for dynamic analysis.
Thank you again.

I have no idea what a non-reflective boundary condition is, sorry.
