Two new PhD scholarship (Computational Mechanics in Bioengineering) at Heriot-Watt University, Edinburgh, UK

The Computational Bioengineering Group in the School of EPS at Heriot-Watt University, UK has two new PhD scholarship available.

*Please indicate which studentship you want to apply for when making informal enquiry to Dr Y Chen (y.chen@hw.ac.uk)

*Please note that ONLY UK/EU applicants may apply for the studentship#2 due to funding restrictions.

 

PhD Studentship #1

*MATRIX GENERATE - Global Stiffness matrix

Thank you  for your reply. I know but I was wondering if it is possible to omit them manually.

 One more question, I figured that using *MATRIX GENERATE, one could get the global stiffness, mass or load matrix in a ".mtx" file. But I am wondering why I can't get the file after the run.

plotting force- displacement

Dear friends

I want to plot force-displacement figure for simulation of axial impact in Abaqus;  after using reference points for defining the
displacement and force in tubes and plates , I encounter
two problems:

1)      1)Amount of forces are
negative.

Topic 53: Health, safety, environmental and cost issues regarding operation, disposal, and re-use of decommisioned plants

In some years to come a large proportion of the offshore
platform will need to be decommissioned. Can we discuss the health, safety, environmental and cost issues as
regards the operation,disposal, and any potential re-use of decommisioned plants and structures?

XFEM convergence problem(the problem has converged, along Meshsize not...)

Hallo,

i have the following problem, when i refine the mesh of Mode I fracture with XFEM, the Force Displacement curve seems not to converge.

Mesh Size:

15*15

25*25

51*51

75*75

the reaction force is going to be smaller and smaller...

can somebody help me? thank u very much!!

ask for some papers

Hi dear all

i want to ask you help me for downloading some papers and sending me by Email.the URL of this papers are written below.I will appricite your help.

thanks alot

Reinforcement bar relation with concrete (grade) strength

Hi,

For any structure (beam/slab/column etc) subjected to a same (fix) load, If I am using different grades of concrete (M10, M30, M60, M80 etc), what  will be effect on reinforcement? Will it remains same or change? Is there any thumb rule for same?

Whether percentage of reinforcement will remain same or change with change in grade of concrete? 

 

 

Thankyou, 

Amit

Topic 49: Safety issues during drilling operations.

These blogs are the perfect way to develop many and various safety discussions covering large areas of industries. As a student of an MSc in Oil and Gas Engineering I would like to develop a discussion related to safety issues in the sector of well drilling and generally the operations associated with this activity.

Topic 48: Safety issues during transportation and distribution of oil and gas.

Transportation and distribution are two sectors of industry which should also be mentioned regarding safety issues applied there. Many incidents are indicating that there is a need of some improvements in practices applied so far. So, my suggestion is to discuss this topic further.

Topic 47: Effectiveness of using RBD, FTA, ETA and Bayesian Network in modelling failure of equipments in the industry

Reliability Block Diagram (RBD), Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Event Tree Analysis (ETA) and Bayesian Network have been said to be useful tools in the Safety and Reliability class. How reliable is this? Can we discuss if this is true.
