How to consider residual displacement in the cyclic response of cohesive elements in ABAQUS?

Hello all, I'm using cohesive elements in ABAQUS to model epoxy (screenshot of the material properties attached). When I apply cyclic loads, there is no residual displacement (disp. goes to 0...

Are strain rate effects automatically considered in ABAQUS?

Hi, I'm using ABAQUS to perform a dynamic explicit analysis and I would like to know if strain rate effects in the material behavior are automatically considered by the software. My model involves...

How to control the time step in a dynamic explicit analysis using ABAQUS?

Hi, I'm currently working with dynamic explicit analyses using ABAQUS, but each analysis is taking +30h. The same models only take ~2h under static loads, so I believe a too small time step is the...

How to model stirrups-rebar contact in ABAQUS?

Hi, I'm modeling shear critical beams, some of them have stirrups and some don't. I got excellent results for the specimens without stirrups and low load capacities for those with stirrups. It...

How to solve the "too many attempts made for this increment" error in ABAQUS?

I'm modeling simply supported and continuous reinforced concrete beams with flexural behavior. My goal is to get the full load-displacement response, including the post-peak behavior (after...

How to obtain the post-peak response of beams on ABAQUS?

Hi all, I'm modeling shear-critical beams on ABAQUS and the load-deflection curves agree well with experiments, plus the stress contours and cracking pattern make sense. There is only one issue:...
