Hi Everyone,
I need to model a material that can only receive tension (not compression), i.e. thin-plastic like material. Do you know whether that kind of material is available in the library of Abaqus ?
Thank you in advance for your suggestions.
regards,
Sendy.
Hi everyone,
At the moment I am studying the behavior of rockfill during wetting (i.e. creep deformation). Since I am only studying it numerically, I want to ask your opinion regarding this creep behavior in field or laboratory:
1. What is exactly the definition of creep ? Is it the increase of...
Hallo guys,
I want to simulate triaxial compression test with constant mean pressure. The initial condition is isotropic stress. Then the displacement control is applied on top of the specimen, with controlling the value of mean pressure (T11+T22+T33) to be always constant along the test.
The...
Hello everyone,
I was wondering how Abaqus calculate the CPRESS in the contact formulation ?
Let take an example of pure sliding between 2 deformable blocks (say block A is placed above block B), consisted of solid elements. Slave/master surface is used for the contact between these blocks...
Hallo Everyone,
I sent the same message in other forum since I'm not sure whether I sent it in the right forum.
The question is about designing diaphragm wall. Can someone inform me about the load factors for water and soil that should be used in designing diaphragm wall ?
Then the next thing...
Hallo Everyone,
I'm just wondering about designing diaphragm wall. What is the load factors for water and soil that should be used in designing diaphragm wall ?
Another thing is: when the loading of soil (effective stress) and water is included, are those loading factors (water and soil) still...
I'm interested in simulation of footing foundation resting on c-phi material (with small cohesion). I am using Mohr Coulomb yield criteria for the soil and prescribing a vertical displacement at some constraint nodes instead of vertical loading pressure.
I observed that tensile stress always...
