First-order reliability method (FORM) for Matlab?

Submitted by edub on
Choose a channel featured in the header of iMechanica

Hello,

I am wondering if there is a source code for first-order reliability method (FORM) or second-order (SORM) available out there, ideally for Matlab but others would be interesting as well.

If not, has anyone programmed this themself?  What literature source did you base it upon?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Wrong pore pressure and effective stress state in ABAQUS

Submitted by Valdemar9000 on

Hey.

I want to model an anchored sheet pile wall placed in a completly saturated clay material, where

the excavation steps on the left side of the wall have to be taken into account.

I am using the keyword in ABAQUS "*Model change, Remove" to remove my elements, so I can

simulate the excavation steps. Unfortunately, my pore pressures seem stranges in the

model when I am using this keyword.

Why different between Solid5 and C3D8?

Submitted by frdw on

Has anyone compared the results of Ansys solid5 element and Abaqus c3d8 element? I tried a very simple example with



exactly same conditions for both elements but got very different displacement results. I put both input files here,



can anyone help me check whether there is something wrong? Thanks.
