Hi OYK,
I see a few problems in your model:
1. you are using a contact element with orientation type from the local axis, but you don't assign the local axis.
2. I would keep geometry in a way to have uniform mesh
3. Check that you are coherent in units of measurement for your material properties ...

Hi,

Thanks for the response. I have watched the webinar and tried applying it to my model. However, I have not ...

Dear Forum,

I am building a model for a footing overturning from a horizontal load. At the moment I am using a fully connected model by merging however the resulting load displacement is not correct. I want to use 2 merged blocks instead (footing and soil) and create an interaction between them ...

Hi Asdea Team,

I am trying to model an offshore shallow foundation with monotonic horizontal loading. For the soil property I tried using the Drucker-Prager model but from another post there is convergence issues. As an alternative I was thinking of using the TruncatedDP property as the main ...
