Course Dates

This course is presented in three lecture sessions from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. CT; lectures and demos will be presented by the instructor during this time.  There is a one-hour break in the middle of each lecture session (12:30 - 1:30 p.m. CT). The workshop sessions are conducted offline with technical support provided by SIMULIA South via email and telephone from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. CT.

Objective

Participants are given an overview of modeling geotechnical problems. Experimental testing and how it relates to the calibration of constitutive models for geotechnical materials is reviewed. The seminar teaches users how to use and calibrate the different geotechnical material constitutive models available in Abaqus and discusses the limitations of these models. The coupling between fluid flow and stress/deformation in the analysis of porous media is also considered. Modeling issues related to geotechnical problems are addressed and numerous illustrative examples are examined.

Who Should Attend

This seminar is recommended for engineers with experience using Abaqus/Standard.
