Thank you UWOVenky, Your file helped a lot and I was able to get it to work with the body force approach! Thanks again!

Hi again UWOVenky, So I decided to simplify it even more. I now made it an axisymmetric single layer of soil with no ground water table but the stresses are not negative at the top. I really don't know what I am doing wrong. I attached my file. Could you take a quick look at it? I don't know...

Hi again UWOVenky. I tried to simplify the model, and now it gives me an error so it doesn't run and it's not having a msg file so I can't see what is wrong. I am thinking of just scrapping the whole thing and starting fresh with a single layer of soil. Which parameters should I define? I just...

Yes, my model is 2D. What would I use for the body force? Just the same -9.8?

Hi all, I am quite new to Abaqus and I'm trying to find the effective stresses on a mass of soil with several layers. I have defined material properties including density, elasticity, Mohr-Coulomb failure and permeability for each layer. I have also applied a gravity force of -9.8 on the...

Hi, How do I find the column shear that corresponds to a full plastic moment developed in a column assuming the column is fixed at top and bottom? My column is a W 8x21. Thanks.
