Assistant Professor Position at Penn State University

Submitted by Aman Haque on
job

The Department of Mechanical and Nuclear Engineering at The Pennsylvania State University is seeking applications for an Assistant Professor position in Mechanical Engineering. The position is open for highly-qualified individuals performing research in technical areas that support our multidisciplinary mechanical engineering curriculum. Priority will be given to applicants with strong background or potential in experimental or computational approaches for biomedical systems or components. The ability to merge mechanical engineering (e.g., solid and fluid mechanics, design, acoustics, heat transfer) concepts with biomedical (e.g., bio-mechanics, imaging, implants and prostheses, microdevices) applications is highly desirable.

hi i am ganesh

currently we are doing final year project about process modelling of turning operation in ansys lsdyna.we are facing difficulty in finding out the constants required for the johnson cook material model.chip formation and failure criteria is still a major problem.so i kindly request you to give suggestion and materials to solve this problem.

damage stabilization

I am working on crack propagation analysis of lamellar microstructures using XFEM. everything is working fine but i have an annoying observation that whenever i change the damage stabilization parameter let say from 1e-5 to 1e-6 then the force-displacement curves changes abruptly and the force which i am measuring on a reference node of my indenter varies two to three times. i tried to see if damage stabilization parameter effect the F-D curves and i observed that crack length and F-D curve changes.

Evoution of Yield surfaces: Past and Future Trend - Part 1

Submitted by Amit Pandey on

yield surfaces

It is essential to know the amount of springback for a given forming process, so that the process or the design of the tool can be modified to obtain the desired product shape. This requires a comprehensive understanding of loading and unloading processes, and determination of elastic constants with finite plastic deformation which, in turn, require precise determination of subsequent yield surfaces.
