I would like to simulate fatigue analysis to know the fatigue life, can any one guide me to do the same. and please specify which package suits for the same.

Thanks

The Research Center for Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Materials at the University of Texas at Austin invites applications for two open positions as Post-doctoral Fellow. The specific projects involve (i) the characterization of the constitutive and failure behavior of structural materials (aluminum alloys, steels, titanium alloys and other selected materials) under quasi-static and dynamic conditions, and (ii) the characterizaation and modeling of the dynamic response of metal-matrix composites. These positions are available immediately.

Hi 

I am woking on an optimization problem. In this optimization problem I want to use Matlab and ANSYS.  In which MATLAB  initiating the optimization problem, and  send input values to ANSYS, then ANSYS find some results and send it to Matlab...then continue the optimization process.

Can any one help me to do these comunications between Matlab and ANSYS?

A two-year postdoctoral position is available at the Oxford Centre for Collaborative Applied Mathematics (OCCAM) to work with myself on the mechanical and geometrical analysis of filament assemblies with application to biological systems. Details and Further Particulars can be found at

I am looking for stress and displacement fields for indentation of an elastic half-space with a rigid spherical indenter. Anthony C. Fischer-Cripps provides closed form expressions (no derivations) for stress fields in his textbook "Introduction to Contact Mechanics" (Chapter 5, Page 88-89). He cites the work of M.T. Huber[1] which is in German (Annalen der Physik, 1904). 

Can someone point me to an English language reference for the analytical derivation of displacement and stress fields in the interior of the specimen ?

Dear Colleagues,



Here we would like to offer you the summary from a published work concernign the optimization of industrial object. The work describes the application of parallel IOSO algorithms and parallel genetic algorithm PGA for the solution of optimization of 3D serpentine cooling passage inside a turbine blade.
