Nonlinear Simulation

SOFiSTiK

As part of my research, I would like to use Sofistik to simulate a test on a reinforced concrete component. For this purpose, cracks develop in the component. Afterwards, I would like to further analyse the damaged module. I have two questions about this:

  1. which damage models are generally stored? Or where can I find them?
  2. how can I best implement the crack formation with Sofistik (in Teddy)?

Hi Lisa,
please have a look at the examples in Teddy under “File - Examples” and then under “ase - english - nonlinear_beam” or “nonlinear_quad” => there are examples with “cracked” in the name.
