I would like to know whether any works have been done in EFGM which suggest the best points in the domain where the stresses have to be computed, like in FEM we do have Gauss points which give minimum error for secondary variables. So can any one please suggest some references in this regard?
The notes on finite deformation have been divided into two parts: special cases and general theory (node/538). In class I start with special cases, and then sketch the general theory. But the two parts can be read in any order.
Hi Friends
I want to share some of our recent research work on the stress induced phase transformation of CuZr nanowire which is published in Materials Letters.
Abstract Submission Deadline: 5 September 2009. Symposium 12: Computational Mechanics for Solid Materials and Structures
Classical plasticity models evolve state variables in a spatially independent manner through (local) ordinary differen-
tial equations, such as in the update of the rotation field in crystal plasticity. A continuity condition is derived for the
lattice rotation field from a conservation law for Burgers vector content—a consequence of an averaged field theory
of dislocation mechanics. This results in a nonlocal evolution equation for the lattice rotation field. The continuity

Besides, I and my colleague (Prof. chen) published a Photonic Crystal book: "Photonic Crystals -- From butterfly wings to nanophotonics" in 2005.

Attached are hand-written notes I have used to implement the Network B for the Bergstrom-Boyce model. They were written for my use only, so if it seems stream-of-consciousness at times, don't blame me. The details should all be there, though.
The following is a (relatively minor) question which had occurred to me more than two decades ago. By now I have forgotten precisely when it was... It could have been when I was in my TE (third year engineering) at COEP. ... Or, perhaps, it was later on, when I as at IIT Madras (studying stress analysis on my own). ... I don't remember precisely when it occurred to me, only *how* it did---it was when I was poring over the first part of Dieter's book.
