Soil analysis example
Soil analysis example
(OP)
Hi guys,
where can I find, in the net, some simple example, I mean input file, to better understand how to model soil (sand and clay) and to work with it. The question seams to be stupid but I'm not used with this kind of problem as I'm mechanical eng. and the examples on abaqus doc. is not very usefull for the beginners on this matter. I'm studying some aspects of soil mechanics on books and I'd like to start with simple FE analyses (e.g. consolidation).
Thanks a lot
bye

RE: Soil analysis example
can you give an example problem?
RE: Soil analysis example
Thanks.
RE: Soil analysis example
If it is a pipe or beam structure, you can look at element psi34.
RE: Soil analysis example
thanks for your advice. I've already used that element in the past now I'm moving towards more sophisticated model may be using ALE mesh and so on. Any advice (a web site or a book)?
Thanks
