    PROBLEM WITH ELEMENT DELETION

    Hello, I have the same problem with my model. Could anyone help me how to get parameters for damage initiation (maximum nominal stress, normal only, shear-1 and shear-2) and damage evolution. My model is related to pre-stressing of strand in concrete. I donot know how to get parameters like Knn...

    Interactions for simulating a real prestress operation of strands in concrete

    Thank you, I will check. I want to plot bond stress at interaction vs strand slip. How I can plot it?

    ABAQUS Bond Stress vs Slip in a prestressed concrete beam with strand

    I modeled the strands as a 3D circular bar and beam as 3D with hole inside for each strand. I use the surface-to-surface contact interaction using cohesive, normal, tangential, and damage behavior from ABAQUS contact interaction.

    Interactions for simulating a real prestress operation of strands in concrete

    I am simulating a prestress beam. I used normal behaviour, tangential behaviour, cohesive behaviour, and damage behaviour. Are these are right interaction combinations for surface to surface? Also in cohesive behaviour, there is traction separation stiffness like Knn, Kss, Ktt. How to calculate...

    ABAQUS Bond Stress vs Slip in a prestressed concrete beam with strand

    I have modeled a beam prestressed with strands. The model works but I want to plot the bond stress at the interface of strand and concrete versus slip of strand. How I can plot this graph from .odb file?

    Spring Element in Pre-stressing of Cables in Concrete

    The screenshot related to the spring element assignment is given as an attachment (Page 6/16). "In this study, the steel used was not ribbed and the consideration of interfacial behavior is limited to bond-slip behavior idealized by using interfacial distributed spring elements of zero...

    Spring Element in Pre-stressing of Cables in Concrete

    Hello, I am trying to model prestressing in cables (strands) in concrete. I am trying to replicate the model as in the paper attached. In the paper, the author mentioned the spring elements between concrete and strands interface. Can anyone help me how to introduce the spring element for...

    Prestressing of Strand in Concrete Beam and Then Release of Strands

    FYI, I don't have a tie constraint in the model.

    Prestressing of Strand in Concrete Beam and Then Release of Strands

    I got a new error: THE *CONTACT PAIR pair (ASSEMBLY_GIRDER-1_SURF-3_DUCT, ASSEMBLY_STRAND-1_SURF-2_STRAND) HAS BEEN PROCESSED BEFORE. REMOVE DUPLICATE PAIR. -- THE SAME PAIR OF SURFACES CANNOT BE SPECIFIED MORE THAN ONCE FOR *TIE AND *CONTACT PAIR. ONCE A PAIR OF SURFACES IS USED FOR *TIE, IT...

    Pre-stressing of strands in concrete beam

    I am trying to model prestressing in strands in a beam. I got this error as below. "Surface-based COHESIVE BEHAVIOR cannot be used for contact pair interactions. See the surface interaction named INTPROP-1" My purpose is to apply an initial prestress or initial displacement or initial jack...

    Prestressing of strands in ANSYS

    Hello, I am trying to apply prestressing to strands in a concrete beam. The idea is: 1. I need to pull the strand by a force of 35 Kip (Loading Step). 2. Then cast the concrete and wait for 1 day so that the concrete beam is hardened enough. 3. After one day, the strands released by prestressed...

    Converting .ODB to .CAE File

    Hi, I have a .odb file of my model. Unfortunately, all other files like .inp, .cae, and .jnl are misplaced from the PC. How I can get all my files back from .odb?

    Coefficient of Friction for Steel on Concrete

    Hello, I am trying to model the interaction between prestressed CFRP strands and concrete in ABAQUS. I have some questions: 1. What would be the friction coefficient between concrete and CFRP strands in tangential behavior? 2. I am using Coeff. friction as 1.4, is it fine for tangential...

    .Lck file issue and Prestressing of CFRP strands in beams in ABAQUS

    Thank you FEA way. What about the pre-stressing action? I hope you have checked that also.
