Modelling Direct Shear and Modified Direct Shear Test 5OF Clay Soil Using Cel Approach in Abaqus

Description

The study aims to model the direct shear test using CEL APPROACH IN ABAQUS. Direct shear test apparatus is used to determine residual shear strength of the soil. In order to accommodate large strain behavior, coupled Eulerian Langragian Approach is used to simulate DS approach. Clay soil with a cohesion of 0.03Mpa is used to simulate the shearing behaviour while a displacement of 10 mm is applied to the bottom box. Both boxes were kept one above each other with a gap of 1mm. The maximum shearing force for the soil measure at 20KN WITH A DISPALCMENT OF 10mm.
