Hi Martyna,
Please correct me if I misinterpreted your attached picture. But it seems to me that you are applying loads to edges that - through boundary conditions - are not allowed to deform. Maybe you could move the loads to just inside the edge of the slab, or change the boundary conditions...
Hello everyone,
I first tried these questions in the Finite Element Analysis forum without getting any replies. I hope it is okay to try here. It is the impact on concrete design that I am mainly interested in after all.
My questions are regarding shear forces near holes in FE analyses of...
Hello everyone,
I have a few questions regarding holes and shear forces in FE analyses of slabs that I was hoping you could help me answer.
To better illustrate the problem, I put together a small FE example (please see the attached picture).
FE EXAMPLE:
- a rectangular slab is simply...
