Dear All,
I have few quick questions:
1. I would like to apply preload into a bolt to simulate HSFG bolts.
I created 3 steps: PRELOAD, FIX LENGTH, APPLIED LOAD. My bolt is M20 and I would like to apply 145 000N. Is the preload applied as N/mm^2 or overall force i.e. am I supposed to input...
Dear All,
I am trying to reproduce results in the document I attached here and I attached my CAE file.
I seem to struggle defining interaction and the model does not converge. I currently modeled the concrete as smeared crack concrete but I would like to use plasticity damaged model instead...
