Hi All,
Does anyone have the values for the fractrue energy or/and displacement at failure for Al2024-T3, I am trying to find them for my simulations.
Many thanks
Dear imechanica members,
My name is Likun and I am posting this blog in searching for postdoctoral positions in Computational Solid Mechanics.
I obtained Ph.D. in Computational Mechanics at Carnegie Mellon University. My thesis work involves developing multiscale method for retrieving slow-time scale behavior from molecular dynamics.
I also have several years' research experience in multiscale analysis and phase-field modeling of hysteresitic behaviror in active materials.
Dear all,
I am looking for a program or software, which allow me to have a quick example for demostrating 3d crack propagation in soft tissue. Can someone share your suggestion on that? At the same time, some references related are also appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.
Best wishes,
Lei
<p>Please join us at the Summer Biomechanics, Bioengineering and Biotransport Conference (SB3C2015), to be held at beautiful Snowbird Utah, July 17-20, 2015 (http://www.snowbird.com). The theme of the conference this year is <strong> Synergy of Modeling and Experiments in Biomechanics, Bioengineering and Biotransport </strong>.
A short overview of micromechanical models of hierarchical materials (hybrid composites, biomaterials, fractal materials, etc.) is given. Several examples of the modeling of strength and damage in hierarchical materials are summarized, among them, 3D FE model of hybrid composites with nanoengineered matrix, fiber bundle model of UD composites with hierarchically clustered fibers and 3D multilevel model of wood considered as a gradient, cellular material with layered composite cell walls.
Wuhan University International Forum for Interdisciplinary Sciences and Engineering December 28 – 30, 2014 Wuhan, China Organizer: Wuhan University 1. About the Forum Wuhan University International Forum for Interdisciplinary Sciences and Engineering is providing a platform for prominent young talents at home and abroad to enhance brainstorming and cross-disciplinary exchange, and advance interdisciplinary sciences and collaborative innovation, with the goal to explore the frontier issues in sciences and build a sustainable future for our society.
The aim of this Journal Club is to provide a forum for discussing the role of applied mechanics in bioelectrochemical systems such as microbial fuel cells, and the potential of computational mechanics during upscaling of those systems.
