This example has done the finite element modeling of the pull-out test of precast wall panels connection in Abaqus. The two precast concrete walls are modeled as three-dimensional solid parts. The reinforcement steel bar and strips are modeled as wire parts. The steel bar as the connectors between two walls ...

In this tutorial, the Simulation Pressure Distribution on Subgrade Soil Underlying Geocell Reinforced Foundation Bed in Abaqus has been studied. High contact stresses generated in the foundation soil, owing to increased load, causes distress, instability, and large settlements. Present days, geocell reinforcement is being widely used for the performance improvement ...

Given the superior strength-to-weight ratio, stiffened panels have been used extensively in the main structure of ships and underwater vehicles. The loads acting on a stiffened panel in a ship is in-plane compression or tension, resulting from the overall hull-girder bending moment or torsion, shear force resulting from the hull-girder ...
