    Convergence Issue while performing abaqus explicit followed by standard

    Hi there, I am working on composite slab subjected to impact load in abaqus, i have modelled slab in abaqus explicit and applied impact by giving velocity to a rigid body andd now i want to find reduced capacity of slab by performing four-point bending test, so i had used predefined field to...

    Negative eigen values error

    Please check model-1 and please help me fixing its initial stiffness , i am validating my model with a research paper , i am attaching its graph please check it Thankyou

    Negative eigen values error

    Hello there , I am modelling a composite slab as SIF 1 i have provide surface to surface contact between steel and concrete and boundary conditions i have applied using a rigid body tie constrain to a reference points and loading i have used coupling to a reference point and applied a point...

    Symmetric boundary conditions

    Hello there, i am modelling a composite slab in abaqus, i have modelled only 1/4 of whole model but now i am confuse how to apply symmetric boundary condition to my model? , should i apply it only at face of concrete or both steel and concrete or only steel?. I have attached an image for...

    Interaction between steel and concrete in ABAQUS

    actually in my case i want to study the slip behaviour of slabs, apart from this actually i rectified i error while using surface to surface interaction and now the steel deck is not getting separated but the slab is unable to predict the initial stiffness correctly , any tips what i should do...

    Interaction between steel and concrete in ABAQUS

    Thankyou for your reply sir, please find below attached images , in 1st image i have used rigid tie constrain on the face of concrete as well as steel deck and choose a control point , on that control point i have applied my boundary conditions. In image 2nd i have applied a displacement of 20mm...

    Interaction between steel and concrete in ABAQUS

    Hello There, I am a student working on abaqus modelling of a composite deck slab for four point bending test as per eurocode 4, i have modelled concrete as solid element , steel as shell element and i have provided boundary conditions using rigid tie constrain the faces of concrete and steel at...
