    geostatic step

    Dear all, I am trying to model a 3d soil column using the Mohr-Coulomb and the c3d8r element type. 1. Firstly, I defined only the elastic properties of the soil (E,v,rho) and I applied gravity using the geostatic step (I also defined initial stresses). My problem is that the displacements are...

    Mohr-Coulomb

    Dear all, I am a new abaqus user and not very familiar with the geotechnical issues.. I have a question which is probably trivial but I would be glad if somebody answer that.. I modeled a 3d soil volume in abaqus using the Mohr-Coulomb material for the soil and element type c3d8r. As far as I...

    apply gravity

    thank you very much for your reply!!! What I don't understand is what type of step I should use... I mean a GEOSTATIC step or a STATIC-GENARAL step (for the analysis under the self weight).. I have a soil volume with Mohr-Coulomb properties and I take the message: geostatic time is too large...

    apply gravity

    Dear all, I have a 3d model(solid elements) of a bridge embankment system and I want first of all to apply gravity and then to do pushover analysis. Do you know how can I apply gravity (I want my model to be in the elastic range under its self weight) and then to apply a horizontal force in...
