University Lecturer Position in Solid Mechanics in Oxford

Submitted by goriely on

We have opened a position of University Lecturer (more or less equivalent to Assistant Prof and Associate Prof in the US system) in " Mathematics in Materials Science".

This is a position at the interface between mathematics and solid mechanics (and associated fields). People either with strong modelling skills or strong mathematical background are encouraged to apply.

hello.

I hope it is ok to ask this here. If not, please let me know which forum to use.

what do you recommned to use for programming finite element methods these days?

I am now learning FEM, and would like to start programming small programs to solve very simple problems to help me learn it better.

 I'd like to be able to plot easily (I learn better by seeing plots than just numbers). A friend recommeneded I use Mathematica or Matlab.  What other options do you recommend?

 This is the list I made so far:

Does anyone have the paper “Equivalent inclusion method for steady state heat conduction in composites”?

Hellow everyone, Ican not find the paperin the titil, Does anyone have it ? My email address is "041858 [at] gmail.com".

Thanks very much.


 

 

AbaqusCAE-placing springs

Submitted by imarton on

Since springs can be placed only between elements, to place  several thousand springs on a 2D long wire shape model, I need to partition my model into thousands elements. Does anyone knows how to partition an element IN Abaqus CAE into desired number of elements, rather than dividing the elements in half and in half and in half until I get a certain number???thank you!

 

Partition Egde in Abaqus CAE

Is there a faster and more efficient way to partion my model in Abaqus CAE than using parameter input for edge partition? This way i can only keep splitting my element in 2, and in 2 and in 2 until I get the sufficient # of elements or until i get confused, wich ever comes first. For a long 2D wire shape models this really is an issue for me right now. If somebody can help me with this.... it would really make my day!Thanks a lot!
