Material Model for masonry in Ansys

Submitted by luissanchez on

Hi to all comunity. Thanks for this forum
where i found a lot of solution inside Ansys. My problem is the next:

I have to make a safety analysis in ansys
of  masonry historical building. Inside  workbench i chose
engineering data tab and associate it whit static structural. When i model my
material i choose density,linear elastic behaviour and tensile faliure criteria
whith crack softening(LS-DYNA). This model is corrected interpreted by the
static structural tab ? because when i review my model inside mechanical apdl i
havent see this crack softening only density and elastic modulus.

 

Thanks
in advance Luis
