Paper of necking
I am searching the paper "Evaluation of stress distribution in the symmetrical neck of flat tensile bars" of J. Aronofsky published at Journal of Applied Mechanics (1951).
Viscoelastic material: Prony series in Abaqus
Forums
Hello
Everybody,
I’m using
Prony series to model viscoelasticity of an asphalt material in a pavement. I
have defined the material properties through time-domain Prony series in
Abaqus. The parameters are:
g_i (shear
relaxation modulus ratio): 0.8
k_i (bulk
relaxation modulus ratio): 0
tau_i
(relaxation time): 1
A symposium in memory of Pr. Olivier Coussy
Dear All,
I would like to announce a symposium in memory of Pr. Olivier Coussy
Mechanics and Physics of Porous Solids : a tribute to Pr. Olivier Coussy
It will be held at Ecole des Ponts ParisTech, France from 18 to 20 April 2011.
All informations can be found in the ongoing website http://navier.enpc.fr/events/mpps2011
Jean-Michel Pereira
on behalf of the organizing committee
Thermodynamics and Fracture Mechanics
Hello!
Let's discuss here some subjects related to Fractal Fracture Mechanics and Fracture Thermodynamics,
1. Introduction
Looking for Papers
Dear all
I am looking for some papers about hygrothermal effect in composite plates.
some of these are here:
composite slab
I am going to study the diaphragm behaviour of the composite slab under the lateral loading.
To simulate the system using FEM package (such as ANSYS or ABAQUS). the obtained results from FEM package would then be verified by experimental results that must be done by myself.
Post-doctoral positions at UCSB in mechanics
The Materials Department and the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UCSB invites applications for post-doctoral fellowships in computational mechanics, with an emphasis on (1) micromechanics of layered systems and (2) high temperature composites. The position involves significant collaboration with a wide variety of colleagues working on many aspects of structural materials, including those in industry and other academic institutions. Preference will be given to applicants with a strong track record of publication.
Contact analysis in abaqus
I’m very much obliged to you if you would be so kinds help me. I am trying to design washing machine. Initially I want to try doing a static analysis. For this, I have modeled cylinder (shell) and, placing them on the solid ribs. After this i have applied boundary condition to the assembly, and also a load (centrifugal). For only Tie connection between cylinder and rib, I got simulation but less strain at rib region.
Positions for doctoral students at TU Wien
A new doctoral college, Energy Systems 2030, is about to start at Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), Vienna, Austria.
A one-page flyer is available at http://www.ilsb.tuwien.ac.at/gener/DC_ENSYS_e.pdf and the doctoal college's web page can be found at http://ensys2030.tuwien.ac.at/EN/.
Within ENSYS 2030 there are 10 openings for doctoral students. Applications can be filed from August 5, 2010.
