Hi,
I am very new to Abaqus. I am trying to model soil structure interaction between a steel fibre reinforced concrete slab resting on a subgrade. Up to the elastic region the model seems to be working fine, but once I introduce the concrete damaged plasticity model I am having convergence problems. I am not sure why this is happening, since the only error I get is "Too many attempts for this increment". The subgrade has a mohr-coulomb plasticity model. Any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks a lot!
