Simulation air blast load over a composite beam(Wood+Aluminum) in Abaqus

In this example, the Simulation air blast load over a composite beam(Wood+Aluminum) in Abaqus has been investigated. The wood slab is modeled as a  three-dimensional solid part with tension and compression zones. The aluminum beam is modeled as a three-dimensional shell part. You can see a figure of the assembled parts below

An aluminum-timber composite (ATC) beam consists of an aluminum girder and a timber slab. The connection between these elements is unproblematic when hexagon head wood screws, glue, or bolts are used. The combination of a metal beam and a timber slab is not new, since steel-timber composite structures have already been investigated. However, aluminium-timber composite (ATC) structures are a relatively new solution in civil engineering

The wood is modeled as an elastic-plastic material in tension and compression zones. The elastic-plastic model and damage behavior are considered for the aluminum beam. The dynam explicit is appropriate for this type of analysis. The contact between the beam and slab is assumed to the surface-to-surface contact, besides that the beam connectors are used also. The proper mesh and boundaries are assigned to all parts. The mesh should be fine to obtain the correct results

After the simulation, all results such as stress, strain, failure, damage, diagrams, and others are available. You can see some figures for the results below
