Dear sir
I am going to make a model of composite (Steel & Concrete) connection with ABAQUS.
This model contains a concrete slab connected to uper flange of steel beam and steel Shear stud connected with both of them.
Therefore
1-How can I define(create) contact and interaction between concrete slab and shear studs?
(Is the finite or small sliding good choice for this purpose?)
2-how much is the friction coefficient between Steel Shear Stud and concrete Slab in the related contact that should be created?
