I had promised to talk about subversion in my post on digitizing and editing figures but never quite got around to it. A recent spate of requests about downloading Uintah reminded me of my promise. So here's the story.
Dear Colleagues:
We invite you to submit an abstract in our mini-symposium titled
Length Scale Effects in Dynamic Failure of Materials
at
8th. World Congress on Computational Mechanics (WCCM8)
5th. European Congress on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences and Engineering (ECCOMAS 2008)
June 30 - July 4, 2008
A new type of elasticity of random (multifractal) structures is suggested. A closed system of constitutive equations is obtained on the basis of two proposed phenomenological laws of reversible deformations of multifractal structures. The results may be used for predictions of the mechanical behavior of materials with multifractal microstructure, as well as for the estimation of the metric, information, and correlation dimensions using experimental data on the elastic behavior of materials with random microstructure.
Professor Y. C. Fung, Professor Emeritus of Bioengineering at UC San Diego's Jacobs School of Engineering, is the recipient of the Fritz J. and Dolores H. Russ Prize of 2007.
The Russ Prize is presented biannually to an outstanding candidate in the field of bioengineering who has made significant contributions to improving the human condition through research, development, teaching, or management. The recipient receives a $500,000 cash award and an engraved gold medallion.
Hi every one
I am doing my master in civil engineering at U.K.M. University in Malaysia. I want to learn 1 FEM software. But I don’t no which of them is better for me ,ansys or abaqus?. My thesis is about concrete filled tubular.
I must model concrete and steel, and I think I face contact problem to define connection between concrete and steel.

I will be very pleased if someone helps me.
The physics associated with self-affine crack formation and propagation is discussed. Some novel concepts are suggested for the mechanics of self-affine cracks. These concepts are employed to model the crack face morphology and, in turn, to solve various problems with self-affine cracks. It is shown that linear elastic fracture mechanics (LEFM) is a special case of self-affine crack mechanics and should be used only in length scales larger than the self-alfine correlation length. The theoretical results are confirmed by available experimental data.
