I have the time histories of six hub load components (3 forces and 3 moments) of a wind turbine. The turbine and the supporting structure have been modelled in a separate FE model which takes into account the dynamic of various components, i.e. supporting structure, hub and blades and the...
Hello everyone,
I have built a 3D reinforced concrete frame in ABAQUS. The model is built in SI(m) units. I have also implemented a Damaged Concrete Plasticity model in my material definition and I have specified a compression stress of 51000000 N/m2 and a tensile stress of 2333333.33 N/m2. The...
Hello everyone,
I have been trying to model in ABAQUS (I am new to the software) a simple supported reinforced concrete beam. I have used solid elements for the concrete beam and wire elements for longitudinal rebars and stirrups.
The simulation keeps failing for 'numerical singularity'...
