IOSO coupled with NUMECA application examples in turbomachinery

Submitted by IOSOnier on

Dear Colleagues,

IOSO optimization technology has been used in turbomachinery for more than 20 years and applied on real-life objects like aircraft and power engines. Let me offer you some more examples.

 

First example:

Ductile fracture prediction in Taylor Test

Submitted by sivaprasad.avs on

I am reading the Weirzbicki's paper titled "Numerical Prediction of fracture in the Taylor test". I do not understand the terms stress triaxility and Lode angle parameter clearly. What does the term "negative stress triaxiality at -1/3" stand for? Kindly explain me these two aspects clearly and also provide some references for reading.

Thanks and Regards,

Siva Prasad A V S.

Opening for new Ph.D. students in the Computational Mechanics group, The University of Iowa

Submitted by Vaibhav Yadav on

The Computational Mechanics group at The University of Iowa, led by Professor S. Rahman,

is looking for new Ph.D. students, who are capable of and interested in performing

high-quality research on reliability-based design optimization.  The research, supported

by NSF and others, entails developing new theory and efficient algorithms for stochastic

computing and design optimization. A solid background in mechanics and elementary

numerical analysis is a must; some exposure to uncertainty and probabilistic methods is

desirable.
