Hello, I would like to model a Winkler foundation on which a slab would rest. Winkler's foundation is an independent linear spring assembly, characterized by a reaction modulus. How could I model the interface between the slab and the foundation. I started by putting a spring interface but I think I'm missing something. Do you have any ideas ? The final objective would be to obtain the tensile stress at the bottom of the slab. (Westergaard model)
Best regards
