-* **El-Caleyo simulation**
+===== El-Caleyo simulation =====
-So called El-Caleyo wall is special formwork with holes and angles designed to test filling ability of self-compacting concrete (SCC). Geometry of the formwork is on the picture below.
+==== Test Setup and Geometry ====
+This example illustrates the casting simulation of real problem. The test has been designed by El-Caleyo. The purpose of this tests is to assess the filling ability of self compacting concrete in complex formworks with complex geometry, containing several holes and rather dense traditional reinforcement. The geometry of the formwork is illustrated in Fig.1.

+==== Computational Model ====
+Simulations were done for two different casting setups. In the first case, the SCC is pumped from the bottom of the specimen with prescribed constant input velocity. In the second case, SCC is casted from the top.
+=== Casting from the bottom ===
+Example of OOFEM input file for the "bottom casting" sumulation can be dowloaded from here: {{:tailorcrete:examples:elcaleyo.oofem.in|}}

+On the next picture, casting scheme is shown. SCC is initially at the reservoir above the wall:

-Simulations were done in two different ways of casting. In the first case, SCC is casted from the bottom of the specimen with constant input velocity. In the second case, SCC is casted from the top as it is usual in real casting.
