I need a complete, ready-to-run finite element model in Abaqus/Standard that captures the load-carrying capacity of CFRP-confined reinforced-concrete (RC) columns. The aim is to reproduce, with dependable fidelity, the way external CFRP wrapping improves axial load resistance when compared with unconfined RC specimens.
You will start from a clean workspace and build everything required: solid geometry, material definitions for concrete, steel reinforcement and CFRP layers, appropriate interaction properties, boundary conditions and loading protocol. I expect the analysis to converge under static general or, if necessary, explicit quasi-static settings so the peak load can be extracted unambiguously.
Because time is critical, I ask for documented evidence of similar work you have already done—screenshots, published papers that cite your simulations, or input files you authored. This allows me to decide quickly and keep the turnaround tight but others also can apply.
Deliverables
1. Model 12 models by varying the heights of the proto type model
2. A brief PDF note (4-5 pages) explaining element choices, damage or plasticity models adopted, mesh-independence check and the resulting load–displacement curve ( directly taken from the Abaqus)
3. One compressed folder with all necessary files so I can reproduce the run without editing paths
Acceptance criteria
• Peak axial load matches at least one peer-reviewed experimental dataset (you may choose the reference and cite it) within ±10 %
• No severe warnings or errors in the .msg or .sta files at completion
• The model opens and runs in Abaqus/Standard 2022 without license errors
I will award quickly and remain available for prompt clarifications so we can finalize the study ASAP.
