A rare opportunity

gautambalaram — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 04:50:09 -0400

I am a masters student presently from Imperial College London. I am working on alternative modeling of fracture and more specifically the Rice-Tracey model. I am using this to model adhesive fracture on a DCB specimen using FEA. I have a very keen interest in pursuing a PhD in the field of fracture mechanics and specifically in modeling of fracture. I would be glad if you could enlighten me whether there are any openings in this field. If yes, then I would be honoured to apply for this rare opportunity.

Hola Francisco

Acabo de leer la tesis en el CSIC y estoy pensando pedir una beca IOF. Buscando información para preparar el proposal he visto esta página. Me preguntaba si me podías dar agun consejo sobre la preparación del proposal para que sea exitoso. Sabes dónde puedo encontrar algún ejemplo de proposal?

Muchas gracias

answer to this question is a little professional!

simple beam 1d, simple shell 2d

I don't understand.

Michael A. Graham — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 12:27:46 -0400

I don't understand your question. I think you'll have to provide a much clearer question if someone is to be able to help you.

Intrested to do Ph.d

Post Doc Application

Egemen Teomete — Tue, 20 May 2008 18:37:55 -0400

Howe Hall Room 1200Iowa State University Ames Iowa 50011 May 20, 2008 Dear Dr. Moes, I am writing to you for application of the post doc positions on X-FEM for the simulation of fracture in composites. I have been working on micro damage modeling due to wire saw cutting process of brittle materials in my PhD. I am sure that I will be very productive while working with you. I worked on finite element modeling of composites using homogenization techniques and mechanical testing of rock, concrete and steel during my M.Sc. I have been working on wire saw induced damage on brittle materials in my PhD. Silicon wafers in semi conductor and photo voltaic industries are sliced using wire saw process. Wire saw process is also used to cut piezo ceramics for actuator and sensor applications. I have been making experimental work on wire saw cutting of Alumina ceramics and working on analytical damage models that will relate the wire saw process parameters with roughness and waviness damage on the cut surface. The indentation damage models and contact mechanics are a starting point for me for the development of a wire saw damage model. I have taken courses on Molecular Dynamics, Continuum Mechanics, Elasticity, Plasticity, Fracture Mechanics and Fatigue, Mechanical Properties of Materials, Finite Elements and Process Engineering. Thus I have a good understanding of mechanics of materials in multi scales. I can send my resume to you if you can provide me your email. I would be pleased if you can contact me via my email: egemen_teomete@yahoo.com. Yours sincerely, Egemen TeometeEmail: egemen_teomete@yahoo.com

Post-Doctoral position available on X-FEM

Ratnesh Khandelwal — Fri, 18 Apr 2008 06:49:07 -0400

Dear Nicolas Moes,

I have recently submitted my PhD thesis titled "Studies on the Evaluation of Thermal Stress Intensity Factors for Bi-material Interface Cracks" under the guidence of Prof J. M. Chandra Kishen at Indian Institute of Science, India.

During the course of my PhD program, I worked on the analytical and computational appraoch for structural and thermal related bi-material interface fracture problems and worked on my self developed "Finite element & bimaterial interface fracture analysis" code. During my doctoral studies, i have developed interest in the following fileds.

Solid Mechanics
Finite Element Method
Fracture and Fatigue Analysis
Bi-material interface crack Problem

I would be quite interested in working on the above mentioned problem under you as post doctoral candidate. Please, let me know the further details through my E-mail ID.

regards,

Ratnesh khandelwal

HELLO

THIS IS RASHMI RANJAN DAS A RESEARCH SCHOLAR IN THE DEPARTMENT OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERING AT indian institute of technology,kharagpur. iam working in the field of fracture mechanics and composites.

in ANSYS which element is to be taken for modelling a panel?

i have started with SOLID-46

WILL THE RESUTS MATCH IF I WILL USE A SHELL ELEMENT?

ANY MORE INFORMATIONS ...PLEASE CONVEY ME.

An observation and a query re. Paul Cashman' job posting

Ajit R. Jadhav — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 08:05:21 -0500

Dear Paul,

Normally, I would have begun by thanking you for posting a job ad. But, the circumstances I have been forced to live in are not normal; American companies *have* been *a* part of those who are responsible for creating the situation; you can't expect me to evade this, would you? (BTW, I don't understand why Americans habitually drop the article "a" before "part" in their English writing.)

I could write a novel-length book if I wanted to. (There is enogh of material.) But enough to say that I have noticed Americans' attempt to point out the combination of the words "Howard" and "Champion" together in front of my eye balls. Howard, as in the hero of Ayn Rand's novel "The Fountainhead."

Please leave the above paragraph alone if you don't understand it and please answer this simple question:

Would you consider a 45 year old Indian male without a green card or a valid US visa in his hand and with PhD (thesis submitted) for this job?

Thanks in advance for answering the question.

-- Ajit

PS: If you thought that Maharashtra's and India's IT ministers were also a part of those who are responsible (for the situation of unemployment that I find myself in), you would be right. Also, the Indian companies. But honestly, I also fail to understand how does the completeness in enumeration really matter towards willingness to actually give me a paying job. Anyway, forget this part as well. To reiterate, I would appreciate if you answer the above query.
