Beam-Column Connection Modelling on ABAQUS
I am modeling a weak-axis haunched beam-column connection specimen subjected to cyclic loading, which I apply through target drift at the beam end. However, when running the analysis, eigenvalue problems consistently appear in the early steps of the specimen.
I think the failure may be caused by the interaction between the base plate and the connection plate. Any suggestions regarding what might be wrong with my model and what I could modify?
Thank you
