This section consisted of two simulations, in the first simulations, we apply load to the concrete column without any reinforcement to have some damage (around 0.05%) on our column then the load will be removed, and CFRP layers will be used in the damaged area to increase the strength of the column and then the load will be applied again. In this section, similar to the previous section, we start modelling concrete only then we reinforce the column using the combination of the CFRP laminate and Steel bars and strips. This section aims to teach you how to analyse various concrete column under compressive loading.

It is highly recommended to watch all these videos and make sure that you understand the theory behind input parameters. In addition, this section provides you with some background information about the concrete damaged plasticity (CDP), Hashin damage criterial for composite material and metal foam input parameters. There are two assignment videos in this section that will help you to test your newly learned skills. First, we start modelling the concrete beam only using CDP material property for concrete class B50, then in each video in this section, we try to reinforce the concrete beam with different methods such steel bars and strips, CFRP and metal foam. This section aims to teach you how to analyse various concrete beams under the 3-point bending condition. Structural Engineering Abaqus Tutorials is the divided into the 12 sections and in order to get the most advantage of it, we highly recommend you to follow the course in order as the basic terms have been only explained in the initial sections. What you will get in Structural Engineering Abaqus Tutorials: Structural Engineering Abaqus Tutorials will teach you the theory behind input parameters as well as modelling and analysing the results. This course is specially designed for mechanical, civil engineering students who want to expand their finite element knowledge. Welcome to the Structural Engineering Abaqus Tutorials, the only course you need to learn how to deal with real-life structural engineering examples.
