Reminder - abstract submission for 1st IC Abrasive Processes

Submitted by Dean Eastbury on

Evolving from earlier meetings on erosion, the International Conference on Liquid and Solid Impact (ELSI-IX) and the International Conference on Erosive and Abrasive Wear (ICEAW-II), the 1st International Conference on Abrasive Processes (ICAP-I) will be held in the historic city of Cambridge, England, 21-25 September 2008.

You are invited to join international delegates for this fully residential conference by submitting an abstract by 27 January 2008. Details can be found at www.icap.elsevier.com

thermal stress in ANSYS

Submitted by F. Mattedi on

Hallo,

I'm using ANSYS for study the internal stresses of a trilayer structure resulting after a cooling process. The middle layer (the solder) has temperature dependent material properties and the other two layers can be considered temperature indipendent mat. properties. If I use a static analysis the software uses the material properties reffered to final temperature.

For an linear elastic analysis is this a realistic procedure?

If the solder deforms plastically at high temperature and not at final temperature..how can I do?

wear of articulating surface of joint replacement

Submitted by Muhsin Salim on

Hi everyone out there...

Now i'm working on biomechanics research project which deals with the articulating surface of joint replacement, where one of the main problem were the wear of sliding contact (i.e., metal on polymer,metal on metal or polymer on ceramics).wear debris or particles generated from this articulating surface can causes the damage of the bone cell around the joint replacement.My question are;
