Some questions about wave propagation

Dear Sir

As we know, periodic signals are best analysed in the frequency domain while stochastic signals are usually more profitably analysed in the time domain. The analysis in the frequency domain usually concern only one signal while in the time domain often involves the comparison of several different signals.

1) what are the general methods for transforming the frequency domain into time domain, and which should be superior?

A Problem in Nature Of XFEM Approximation

There is a basic problem in NATURE of approximation of discontinuity in element using XFEM.I tried to illustrate that below:
for example, If you consider an element with strong discontinuity( like fracture or contact) which usually we use heaviside function as enrichment function. we expect two parts of element deform independently because of nature of problem.

In equation for approximation of this element we have two main parts. First  is 'regular' or 'standard' part which uses the standard shape functions of element and Second is the enriched part.

Damage Investigation In Drilling of Polymer Matrix Composites

hii friends

              I am doing project on damage investigation  in drilling of polymer matrix composite and using FEM approach ABAQUS 6.8. so i want to damage compare between trepanning tool & twist drill. i have problem in simulation and  plotting(graph). so plz solved this problem

Question in sequentially coupled thermal stress analysis using ABAQUS

I was wondering if anyone has solved a “sequentially coupled thermal stress analysis” problem using ABAQUS?

If so, here is what I am looking to solve.

Let’s assume we solved for the temperature (T) as a function of time and space using the transient heat transfer analysis given certain BCs.

Clarifications o Stroh formalism

sir,

I am solving some problomes for Stresses around holes for Anisotropic cases. In this connection most of authors have solved the stresses in cartesian co-ordinates only. Can I have any papers which are solved in polar co-ordinates by Stroh formalism for Stresses around holes in Composite laminates.So kindly help me

thanking you

how to start a research

hi all,

 I am a mechanical engineer currently pursuing Master degree (Post graduation). Ultimately i also want to pursue a research leading to PhD after my master's. Its my burning desire to do some significant research in the field of Fatigue analysis using Fracture mechanics approach preferably for aerospace domain using advanced CAE softwares like Nasgrow, Afgrow, Abaqus, FE-safe, MSC Fatigue, etc,..

I'm looking for a new vibration exciter

I'm looking for a new vibration exciter which exciting frequency can reach 300hz .I'll use it to load the cantilever beam specimen , compare the  fatigue life of the specimen under different loading frequency. the electric exciter can not  generate the same amplitude under difference exciting frequency.

who can tell me that how can I found or design a mechine to finish the expriment.thank you

Compositional patterning in coherent and dislocated alloy nanocrystals

Variations in the distribution of the alloy components can significantly influence the electronic properties

of self-organized alloy nanocrystals. Using a combination of finite element and quadratic programming

optimization methods, we have developed an efficient numerical technique to compute the equilibrium

composition profiles in coherent and dislocated nanocrystals. We show that the variations in composition

profiles arise due to the competition between chemical mixing effects and the relaxation of composition-

dependent mismatch strain as well as strain due to dislocations. We find that the composition profiles

Water diffusion and fracture behavior in nano-porous low-k dielectric film stacks

Among various low-dielectric constant low-k materials under development, organosilicate glassesOSGs containing nanometer-size pores are leading candidates for use as intrametal dielectrics infuture microelectronics technologies. In this paper, we investigate the direct impact of waterdiffusion on the fracture behavior of film stacks that contain porous OSG coatings.

Symmetry breaking, snap-through, and pull-in instabilities under dynamic loading of microelectromechanical shallow arches

Arch-shaped microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) have been used as mechanical memories, micro-relays, micro-valves, optical switches, and digital micro-mirrors. A bi-stable structure, such as an arch, is characterized by a multivalued load deflection curve.

Light Activated Polymers

Soft active materials have received increasing interests recently. Here, soft materials can broadly refer to polymers, elastomers, hydrogel gels. Active materials mean that these materials can respond to external stimuli. Examples of soft active materials include shape memory polymers, environmentally responsive hydrogels, liquid crystal elastomers, etc.

Effect of constraint on swelling of hydrogels and formation of surface creases

Inspired by recent works by Wei Hong , Xuanhe Zhao, Zhigang Suo, and their coworkers, we started a project on hydrogels, with particular interest in various instability patterns observed in experiments. The attachment is our first manuscript on this subject. Through this work we hope to achieve the following:

Combined EAM and Stillinger-Weber potential and Combined EAM and Tersoff Potential

We have combined the EAM and the SW and the TF potentials in one
functional form. This functional form allows the modeling of metals, covalent systems, and mixed systems (M-Si,Ge,C,SiC) very efficiently allowing the study of
large systems. The combined potential retains the properties of the original EAM, SW and TF potentials for the pure elements thus limiting the fitting only for the cross interactions. The potential iscalled as the "Angular-dependent
Embedded Atom Method".

Failure Criteria for Fiber Analysis

Hello,

I am trying to include a failure criteria for a single yarn in a plain- weave fabric model.The yarns behave as elastic-brittle( That is there is no plastic deformation)
I have the failure stresses and strains data in both fiber and transverse directions.I have  included the following properties:

Analysis of Torsion-Bending of Laminated Composite Beam by FEM using ANSYS

 Hi everyone!

i'm a researcher at the Deparment of Mechanical Engineering of University of the Philippines-Diliman. currently, i'm working on completing my thesis for my MS degree. my research area in general is in mechanics of composite materials (fiber-reinforced). my problem is that of formulating the FEM solution to the torsion-bending of laminated composite beam having orthotropic layers.

Deformation gradients and atomistic simulations

I came upon a recent paper called "Deformation gradients for continuum mechanical analysis of atomistic simulations" by Jonathan A. Zimmerman , Douglas J. Bammann,  and Huajian Gao, International Journal of Solids and Structures 46 (2009) 238–253 where the authors conclude with

User Element for Ansys

Hi,

I ask for help. I need to implement a user element for shell element in Ansys, and I ask if somebody know how to do this or can send me some example. I try to read something but I not found a good example about user element in Ansys Thanks a lot.
