Hi
There is something i am not sure i do understand it right.
For consolidation (soil analysis-fluid/stress model), when i set a time for the consolidation step (either fixed or automatic) , would abaqus give the results at that time, or would it assume that it is the time for the 100% consolidation.
i know it is a weird question but i am trying an analysis with different times, what abaqus does is that it gives same stresses at the end of all times, and same stresses at same proportions of time (same streses at 25%,50%,75% and 100% of time set).
am i misunderstanding something?
 
I figured out whats wrong with the analysis..Thanks
