Your series of lectures on Abaqus have really been helpful. Thank you Sir.

Thanks Dr. Ahmed For these informative lectures, your efforts are valuable.

Dear Ahmed Thank you so much for such beautiful explanation. I am not just talking about this video, the whole lecture series by you is excellent, informative, understandable and beautifully explained.

Your Tutorials are awesome, thank you alot

Thank you very much! this is a great tool and a huge help for the community :)

Dr Ahmed Elkady Thank You Very Much for your Work. I'll be following you on LinkedIn.

Absolutely amazing program. Thanks heaps!

Appreciate your good work👏👏

Dear Ahmed Elkady, your tutorials are very useful. I have recommended your tutorials to my friends and research scholars. I have one request, please make a tutorial on brick masonry. Thanking you

Really , thank you for your great efforts 🥰🥰🥰

This is outstanding thank you very much for sharing

Appreciate your great work

Thank you for your great video

Thank you for your great work！🤨

If you experience issues running the tool, try the following: 1) Make sure you have the latest update from GitHub. 2) Make sure windows languge is set to English. 3) Run the program "as admistrator".

Hello Sir i am one of ur biggest followers and admirer, we really appreciate what your are doing, i have been looking for a complete formation on abaqus for years but have never came accross a series of tutorial like yours. Your are doing great job. Thanks for that. However, i would like you to do new series on prestressed concrete and prestressed steel structures also if possible, there is no much tutorials on prestressing.

Thank you very much

Amazing! In China mainland to use for this type of software ,we usually need to pay for it. its too ridiculous. thanks for your generous.its a great channel.

Hi, Dear Ahmed Elkady, thx for your turorial. Could you make another video about using concrete smeared cracking model.

Dear Dr. Ahmad Thanks for your very useful training programs. If possible, provide training to create a biaxial failure ( yield ) by kupfer and lee ... Thanks

Thank you Dr. Ahmed Elkady for your nice presentation in your video! All your videos are vanguard. I wonna to ask you that you are not included error on ABAQUS after submission of job! for example how we can fix if the errors say " Too many attempts made for this increment". in your video of pre-tensioning when i did as you did, it say like this one. how we fix it? Thank you!

Hi thank you for your videos. They are very helpfull!!! i have one question. Is this tool only for concrete cylinder or can i use it also for concrete cube ?

thank you, the video is really informative, this can be used only for concrete material, can you suggest to me some ideas to generate a curve for mortar material.

thanks

assalamou alaikoum, thank you very much.

Great vedio! Is that possible to do a video on meso scale modelling like aggregates creation and mortar for heat transfer analysis in concrete? It will very useful

Sir thank you. I have certain doubts though Fcu is fck+8? Is fcu reported compressive strength of block or cylinder? Characteristic length of element .. accommodated in compression descending branch branch? Thank you

Hello, teacher. I'd like to ask you some questions. For CDP, if the cyclic load of concrete is in the elastic stage, how to consider the concrete damage and how to make the concrete achieve plastic failure? thank you

Good morning dr.ahmed I was wondering if you could help me with these warnings please, For two-dimensional models, if a non-unity thickness is specified for two-dimensional solid elements and these elements are involved in an interaction such as contact, the same thickness should be specified for the out-of-plane thickness of the corresponding surface under *surface interaction. For *tie pair (assembly__pickedsurf7-assembly__pickedsurf6), adjusted nodes with very small adjustments were not printed. Specify *preprint,model=yes for complete printout. I am working on an RC beam-column joint

👌👌👌

hello, DR.Ahmed is this tool has the ability to create a consecutive model for UHPC (Ultra-High-Performance Concrete )?thanks in advance

Is this program generate the parameters for concrete when exposed to a fire ?

It's great to have such an amazing tool for CDP model in ABAQUS. I would like to ask you one thing about damage calculations, which formula did you use for damage calculation in Chinese code? Thanks!

Yes, individual brick material behaviour can be represented using the CDP model. This of course does not include the brick-to-brick interface.

Sir... Can you upload videos regarding masonry column with detailing modelling..

Sir, can you upload or provide video or pdf related to simulation of composite steel concrete structure. It will be very helpful for me😊

Can you make penetrate simulation on plate? Thank you

Please can you send the program that generates the concrete data

Can we have input valves in FPS system? like inches, psi, ksi etc. please guide sir or anyone.

Excuse me, how can we generate data for concrete with a compressive strength of more than 100 MPa ?

Dear Dr. Elkady, I want to express my gratitude for your invaluable work. I've been attempting to simulate a cementous material using the CDP model with the assistance of your Input Generator. However, I encountered an error message while using your input generators. Could you kindly provide clarification on the units of input data modes? Additionally, I'm curious to know if your input generator is capable of modeling the CDP model with a maximum compression of 0.59 MPa and a maximum tension of 0.05? Thank you for your time and expertise.

The units are indicated in the tool interface (MPa and mm). If you observe a bug for material with low fcu, please raise an issue on Github and I will try to address it asap.

Dear Ahmed, when i take the values generated from this tool, should i convert it to inelastic strain? or can i paste it in the Abaqus table directly?

Hello Sir, may i ask why is my Abaqus Job- Data Check is showing "DURING THE CONVERSION FROM CRUSHING TO PLASTIC STRAIN Abaqus FOUND NEGATIVE AND/OR DECREASING VALUES OF PLASTIC STRAIN FOR MATERIAL CONCRETE CDP.

try 1) running the program as adminstrator or 2) download and install the updated installer. The issue will be fixed.

Dear Ahmed Elkady. Your videos are A+++, I send a lot to my phd students. But promoting tutorials with tensile stress vs strain with softening, with no regularization is a HUGE mistake. The journals are rejecting a lot of papers, due to researchers now trying to do this. This problem is known since 1983 by BAZANT, using stress vs displacement instead. Please don t contribute for this "scientific confusion". “Crack Band Theory for Concrete, Materials and Structures 16: 155-177, 1983” “Non-local Smeared Cracking Model for Concrete Fracture in the Journal of Structural Engineering 1987” In any case great videos Best Regards

i'm glad you found the tutorials useful. The limitations associated with modeling tensile softenening using strain rather than cracking displacement are actually highlighted in another tutorials. While the latter option is generally recommended, the former is still usable under certian conditions. In any case, the choice and proper implenetation of a given modeling option relies entirely on the user who clearly must be familiar with the relvant litrature, the underlying theory and the potential consequences of the modeling choice.

Dear Dr Elkady, After downloading, it says the tool version is expired. Can you provide us with the new release, Please?

Hello Dr. Ahmed .... I want to thank you for this fantastic informative video regarding CDP. Can you please guide regarding calibration? How to calibrate CDP using Abaqus? My model behavior doesn't match with material behavior?

@AElkady

Please be aware that the CDP model (and any material model that involves stress softening) is mesh-dependadnt. Therefore the response will change with the mesh size. You will need to calibrate the mesh size for a given material CDP definition.

Dr. Ahmed when I assigned all properties of the CDP model on projectile penetration on the concrete portion. The Mises stress (average) and strain (average) behave live stress-strain of steel and not behave like stress-strain curve of assigned concrete materials. So, what will be the possible region? @@AElkady

Thank you sir but how can I know the mesh element characteristic value?

@AElkady

The characteristic length depends on the element geometry and formulation: it is a typical length of a line across an element for a first-order element; it is half of the same typical length for a second-order element.

Thank you Dr. Ahmed for the beneficial and clear tutorials! The CDP Model Input Generator worked perfectly with me but then an error popup saying "Unrecognized function or variable ´ctfroot´.
