hi shz713..i am new to abaqus and trying to learn by myself so having these difficulties.I tried with abaqus standard but it not considering the effect of gravity load or dead load in analysis.i think the acceleration value of 9.81 in component 2 of it is nottaken care of by standard.maybe...
previously u said that for density effect we have to use explicit.my slab has some density and i want to use it as dead load.so i am asking whether to use an explicit or we can use abaqus standard and put it in coupled temp dsplacement step?
yes i want the dead load of the slab to apply on the layers below.so will i use a coupled temp displacement step and use gravity as load for applying the dead load?
Thank u friend.i was talking of static load.i will try to implement your solution.should we use rigid 3d or 2d for the wheel?
And for the model of a concrete plate on base should we use abaqus standard or explicit in the mesh element type?and the temperature of surfaces are to be applied in a...
i have a question. if i want to do the same model as hangv has done..will i use abaqua standard or explicit?.i also have to release the weight of concrete slab.and the temperature conditions to slab surface are to be applied in coupled temperature displacement step i assume?please reply
How to model a static wheel load?Do we have to create a separate part in the shape of contact area of tyre and then make in contact with the pavement and then apply load?
Friend,I want to use a element that has stiffness as well as friction between concrete and bar.so i use axial connectors.for d11 value in elastic property i use stiffness.coefficient of friction can also be given.but i am confused with internal contact force value.how to calculate it???.please...

hi friends!!!
i am a mtech student...i am modelling a rigid pavement structure for temperature stress analysis...i want to know the steps to apply winkler foundation and also to apply temperature gradient to my model in abaqus...i look forward to your help...plz reply...
