Mesoscopic model for mechanical characterization of protein materials

Submitted by Kilho Eom on

We consider the mesoscopic model of protein materials composed of protein crystals with given space group for understanding the mechanical properties of protein materials with respect to their structures. This preprint was accepted for publication at Journal of Computational Chemistry.

Entropy production on a single trajectory of the small system

Submitted by Joseph X. Zhou on

The following PowerPoint file is from the talk which I gave in my research group recently. It is also my understanding and reading notes from a serial of papers by Prof. Udo Seifert, in which he generalized the entropy production on a single trajectory of the small system such as a molecular machine. It mainly addresses three questions:

3D modeling of composite material in ANSYS

Submitted by Basak on

Hi,

I am trying to model a composite material in ANSYS. I have used ANSYS for simple simulations before but I have never done composite material analysis. I have attached a simple schematic of what I am trying to model. Can you guys please help me? Any tip you can give will help. I have limited time. 

Thank you,

Basak

 

Viscoelasticity in Abaqus

Submitted by Andreas Burger on

Hi All,

 I would like to use Abaqus to model the viscoelastic material  behaviour of a polymer.



I have material data from a simple uniaxial creep experiment (nominal strain vs time).  I tried to use the viscoelastic material model in Abaqus.  I am a bit confused as to how I need to enter my data (what format). 

The manual says I have to specify the normalized bulk and normalized shear compliance . 

  


where is the shear compliance and the volumetric compliance
