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

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 Masonry Wall under Seismic, Shear, and Compressive Loads

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 […]
Simulation of high-speed impact into ceramic composite systems using cohesive-law fracture model

Papers abstract: A numerical study for the analysis of oblique metal/ceramic/metal three-layer composite systems against a long-rod has been performed. The study was done using a three-dimensional dynamic program NET3D, which uses the finite element Lagrangian method with explicit time integration. To model the discrete nature for fracture and damage of brittle materials, we implemented […]
Analysis of a composite GLARE panel under air blast load
Simulation Pull-Out Test Modeling of GFRP bars bonded with epoxy inside timber

Introduction to Simulation Pull-Out Test Modeling of GFRP Bars in Timber with Epoxy The Pull-Out Test is a widely used experimental method to assess the bond behavior between reinforcement materials and a substrate, such as glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars embedded in timber using epoxy adhesives. This method provides valuable insights into the load transfer […]
Analysis of adhesively bonded cross-laminated timber-concrete composite under close blast explosion test

The increasing demand for sustainable and resilient building materials has driven the development of hybrid structural systems that combine the advantages of different materials. One such system is the cross-laminated timber–concrete (CLT–concrete) composite, which leverages the high stiffness and compressive strength of concrete with the lightweight, renewable, and ductile characteristics of cross-laminated timber (CLT). These […]
