help about secnd order effect in columns
ello all,
I am an M.S student, my subject in modelling of high strength concrete column under eecentric loading. I made a model of reinforced
concrete column with in ANSYS by solid65 to represent concrete and link8 for steel.
My model is 200*200*4000 mm, i choose multi., conc.,and elastic linear for concrete, closing crushing for it, for steel bilinear, elastic.
Slenderness ratio (l/d)=20 Although Using large displacement analysis option, model give me very small displacement (less than

Material properties and temperature

Hi All,
As you know the material properties such as Modulus of Elasticity, Poisson's ratio and Shear Modulus are temperature dependent. Especially, the polymer material as it shows significant reduction in strength and stiffness with temperature increasing.
I did a tensile test on adhesive material at different temperatures. The results showed that the E-modulus is reduced about 70% at 60 °C and the Poisson’s ratio increased also.
Research Associate position on Multiscale Modelling of Thermal Barrier Coatings (Cardiff University)
A full time postdoctoral research associate position is available at Cardiff University under the supervision of Professor Bhushan L. Karihaloo and Drs Kulasegaram and Zhu, funded by FP7. http://www.engin.cf.ac.uk/research/resInstitute.asp?InstNo=13
The research aims to develop novel metal-ceramic materials for aerospace and automotive applications.
Objectives:
Explicit solvers (LS-Dyna) : Are they faster and more accurate then implicit FEM (Marc) for solving large plastic deformation

i m, arun sahu student of IIT kharagpur.my mtech thesis is effect of dynamic loading on slope stability analysis in open cast mines.i hav startted my work using software ABAQUS.can i give velocity as input in abaqus?
and here i just want to give trapezoidal form of load up to 2 sec.so plz help me in these ...............
