Elimination of Rigid Body Motion
Hello everybody
I'm doing some experimental research by the help of DIC method, But I have a huge problem that I hope someone can help me about that. After capturing my datas, I realized that there is a constant value of rigid body motion that is added to my real datas and so that all of my results seem to be wrong. I was wondering if anyone knows how to eliminate this rigid body motion ( translation or rotation) from my datas.
Thanks in Advance
Finding a node by using the coordinates
I am failry new to Abaqus. I am working on Abaqus CAE. I want to find the nodal temperature ouput for a particular location.
I know the location(X;Y;Z) values but i dont know the node label. How to do i identify the node in CAE?

Carbon Nanotubes
Hi everyone,
Will really appreciate if you can refer me to some literatures that works on vibrational characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotubes using nonlocal elasticity.
Molecular Mechanics
Hi All,
Can you please suggest me some good books or online links to understand the theory/applications of Molecular modelling. I am in Mechanical Engg. Dept. and new to this subject. Currently I have started reading the book by Andrew R. Leach (Molecular Modelling principles and applications)
stress intensity factor
i am doing project on how crack growth and which direction growth. in 2d and 3d model using anasys. so i want calculate stress intensity factor how it is calculate bt using j integral method. this project totally numerically.
