Hysteresis analysis of RBS with end-plate bolted connection and stiffener Abaqus

Description

Hysteresis analysis of RBS with end-plate bolted connection and stiffener Abaqus

In this illustration, we intend to simulate the hysteresis analysis of RBS with end-plate bolted connection and stiffener in the Abaqus software

As you observe in this picture, the Model includes RBS beam, Column, End plate, Bolt, Continuity Plate, Doubler Plate and Rib Stiffener

In this question, a cyclic loading is applied to the beam and subsequently, the hysteresis diagram of the Model will be drawn

In this picture, the hysteresis diagram obtained from the Abaqus software have been compared with the experimental results

As you observe, the results obtained from the Abaqus software are so close to the experimental results

This project has been validated, which means that the results obtained from Abaqus software are similar to the results of the article. In other words, this project is based on the article
