    (ABAQUS) Earlier Failure and Unrealistic Cracking of Reinforced High Strength Concrete Beam Under Bending Simulation

    I have read that paragraph and I am a little bit confused with the description stated in the document with interpretation of my model. I am using another model to illustrate my confusion. The paragraph said the normal vector to crack plane is parallel to the direction of max principal plastic...

    (ABAQUS) Earlier Failure and Unrealistic Cracking of Reinforced High Strength Concrete Beam Under Bending Simulation

    I have doubled checked the CDP parameters, and it seems to be fine. It is also verified by experiments so I guess that might not be the major problem here. But I would like to ask one thing regarding the DAMAGET in ABAQUS, if an element is completely red under this parameter, does that...

    (ABAQUS) Earlier Failure and Unrealistic Cracking of Reinforced High Strength Concrete Beam Under Bending Simulation

    Hi all, I am simulating a RC beam under 4-point bending test and the results were terrible. I have attached the results below and I have three problems that I have no idea how to solve. I have been refining this model for the past few weeks. I could not resolve the problems and thus seeking...

    Memory Allocation Issue

    Thanks for the help! I opened the file and saw this. Is this what you are referring to? But how does this relate to the "memory allocation" problem? Also, since I am using parallel desktop to open ABAQUS on my mac, the pre-assigned RAM for the parallel desktop is 4GB.

    Memory Allocation Issue

    Hi, I am a complete beginner on ABAQUS and I was running an analysis on Timber-Concrete Composite through tutorials on YouTube. After running the analysis for about 10 minutes, this showed in the command window in red text "The memory allocation for job Trial was increased to 4051MB based on the...

    How to model a 2-node beam element

    Hi all, I am a beginner in ABAQUS and am trying to replicate a numerical model from a research paper. The paper has reinforcement stir-ups inside concrete material, and 2-node beam element was used to model the stir-up. I had no idea what does that mean. Can anyone help? Here is the link to the...
