I feel honoured to share this news that, Dr. Vikram deshpande of cambridge University engineering department is appointed as Professor, effective October 1. He is quite a inspiration to people like me who work in solid mechanics.His contribution to this area is immense and i really feel happy for his acheivements and many more to come.
My heartiest congragulations to him
Dear all,
I need suggestions regarding the transverse/out of plane material properties like E3, G13, G23 for woven composites. While modeling(and simulation) the woven composite in LS-Dyna where a shear load is applied over the surface of the laminate to study the damping behaviour of the material, i need to give the material properties (especially G13 or G23 plays a major role) which is not precisely available in the literature.
