2D and Axisymmetric pull-out test analysis of a steel fiber

Steel Fiber Pull-Out 2D finite element model

Steel Fiber Pull-Out Simulation Using Abaqus The pull-out behavior of a single steel fiber embedded in concrete is one of the fundamental mechanisms governing the mechanical performance of steel fiber–reinforced concrete (SFRC). The load transfer between the fiber and the surrounding concrete matrix controls crack bridging, post-cracking strength, toughness, and energy absorption capacity of the […]

Analysis of the new empty masonry block under shear and compressive loads

Hollow masonry block

Masonry units remain one of the most widely used construction materials due to their durability, cost-effectiveness, and ease of production. In recent years, the development of new empty (hollow) masonry blocks has gained increasing attention, primarily because of their reduced self-weight, improved thermal insulation, and sustainability benefits. However, the presence of cavities significantly influences the […]

Analysis of Masonry Wall under Seismic, Shear, and Compressive Loads

Masonry wall analysis under seismic and shear loading in Abaqus

Masonry Wall Analysis Under Seismic, Shear, and Compressive Loading Using Abaqus Masonry walls are widely used as structural and non-structural elements in buildings due to their durability, thermal efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. However, their structural behavior is highly complex because masonry is a heterogeneous assemblage composed of discrete units (bricks) bonded by mortar joints. The nonlinear […]

Analysis of the new concrete masonry block under compression load in Abaqus

Concrete masonry block under axial compression in Abaqus FEA

Concrete Masonry Block Analysis Under Axial Compression Using Abaqus Concrete masonry blocks are among the most widely used construction materials due to their cost-effectiveness, durability, and ease of production. Their structural performance, particularly under compressive loading, plays a critical role in determining the load-bearing capacity and overall stability of masonry structures. With the development of […]
