How to model beam on elastic foundation in ABAQUS?
(OP)
I am trying to model a simple 2D beam on elastic foundation in Abaqus. How to do this in ABAQUS? Any ideas or comments? Thanks in advance.

It is possible to define spring in each node (divide the beam into a number of nodes previously). The problem is if you have tensiones (uplifts). I think sap2000 is easier to perform this analysis.
