Abaqus - cohesive concrete and epoxy
Hi,
I was browsing through this forum which I find very helpful.
I am trying to model a simple shear pull out test by simulating debonding in abaqus.
epoxy is bonded between concrete and frp.
i am pulling frp from one end by applying a load while other end of concrete is fixed.
epoxy is modeled as cohesive with quad damage and traction
interaction has been defined as hard contact, cohesive and damage (initiation, evolution and stabilization).
automatic stabilization is also provided by inputing the damping factor.
