The 2011 SIMULIA Customer Conference has concluded, but the memories of the hundreds of presentations, partner exhibits, and Flamenco entertainment at the banquet will last a lifetime! Check out our Blogs from the 2011 SIMULIA Customer Conference in Barcelona!
I'm trying to model in ABAQUS that crack density increases with an increasing strain. The single crack path could be either predefined or solution-dependent. It seems to me that seam crack is able to deal with predefined crack path, but could not deal with increasing crack number? XFEM is powerful and able to predict solution-dependent crack path, however, is it able to produce more and more cracks as the applied strain increases? Thanks for any help. Appreciate.
Hi,
I am writing to inform you about a new master in Computational Materials Science offered at TU Bergakademie Freiberg, Germany. It is an international master program, and all the lectures will be given in English.
To enhance multidisciplinary research, the program is open to students from different background, mechanical engineering, solid state physics and materials science.

Abstract:
Numerical simulations based on finite element modelling are increasingly being
developed to accurately evaluate the tensile properties of GLARE (GLAss fibre REinforced
aluminium laminates). In this study, nonlinear tensile behaviour of GLARE Fibre Metal
The Micromechanics of Materials group at the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials in the Netherlands is looking for a qualified PhD student to unravel irradiation-induced embrittlement in nuclear materials. A detailed description can be found in the attachment. Ideally, candidates have an MSc degree in mechanical or nuclear engineering, (applied) physics, material science or a related field, but holders of a BSc with the highest ranks may also be considered.
Apply before it's too late: June 1.
