I am modeling a reinforced concrete column under the heat transfer analysis in the Abaqus. According to the previous research related to my work, I modeled reinforcement as a wire geometry and truss element. But my problem is in the definition of an interaction between concrete element and longitudinal and transverse reinforcement that can transfer temperature to reinforcements.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks Mr Ansari.
But I know that how do heat transfer analysis. my problem is in definition of suitable constraint that transfer temperature from concrete to reinforcement. There is no general contact in heat transfer analysis.
Thanks Mr Khennane.
I used embedded region constraint but I find that embedded region constraint is only for stress analysis. This constraint can not be used to transfer temperature to reinforcement in heat transfer analysis. Also according to Abaqus Analysis User s Guide, temperature degree of freedom at an embedded node is not constrained.
to transfer the heat from concrete to steel truss element, it must be defined the bond slippage between them by translator element with temperature dependency
