Hello all,

I need to study the Asphalt concrete (Viscoelastic) behavior under static loading using ABAQUS. Which analysis procedure could give the proper results. Suggestions are helpful. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Prashanthi

In material property you need to define viscoelastic properties using your test data. In step you should choose General->visco as well.

See these discussions I found on researchgate. They will be helpful.
