Thanks for your help.
I locate the node. It’s in the transition shell elements. Last time, by default ADINA automatically assigns 5 degrees of freedom to the midsurface nodes. It’s should be 6 degrees of freedom because :
+ Nodes along the edge of shell elements intersecting at an angle...
Hello,
I’m using Adina to model dynamic behaviours of an integral abutment bridge. In my model there are shell transition elements to model the connection between steel girder and the integral abutment (shell to solid intersections). The original model works ok with dynamic analysis.
Then I...
Hi,
Is there anyone using ADINA? Please help me.
I'm using ADINA to model an integral abutment bridge. I want to use a coefficient of thermal expansion for an elastic isotropic and orthotropic material (steel, concrete, asphalt).
I have the 7 materials, and a table of their properties...
Hi all
I want to know the changes of Young’s Modulus of Reinforced Concrete due to temperature varying between -20 C to 30 C. Would you please recommend me any literature, papers, book about it.
Thanks,
Hi
I’m a structural engineer. I model an integral abutment bridge in ADINA software. For the interaction between the backfill and the abutment, I use a soil spring model. The stiffness of the spring is equal to lateral stiffness of backfill (granular soil). Does any body know how to calculate...
