Dear Researchers, Scholars,
We are very glad to inform you about publishing a new quarterly journal, in Multidisciplinary Sciences and Fundamental Physical Sciences as,
“International Journal of Fundamental Physical Sciences (IJFPS)”
A new journal published by the Institution of Civil Engineers (UK) is available: Géotechnique Letters.
Average time to first peer review decision: 32.5 consecutive days.
First papers are available for free at the ICE Virtual Library: http://www.icevirtuallibrary.com/content/serial/geolett/fasttrack
Have a look!
A RA (MS level) position is available in the Department of Engineering Technology, University of North Texas-Denton in the fields of characterization of piezoelectric crystals, design and modeling of piezoelectric resonators and sensors. The position will start from spring, 2012. Candidates should have a Bachelor/Master's degree in engineering mechanics, mechanical engineering or electrical engineering with good academic standing and should have some experiences in the following:
Pressurized elastic capsules arise at scales ranging from the 10 m diameter pressure vessels used to store propane at oil refineries to the microscopic polymeric capsules that may be used in drug delivery. Nature also makes extensive use of pressurized elastic capsules: plant cells, bacteria and fungi have stiff walls, which are subject to an internal turgor pressure. Here, we present theoretical, numerical and experimental investigations of the indentation of a linearly elastic shell subject to a constant internal pressure.
Dear All.
May I please ask what is the relationship between Elastic modulus and hardness. Is it a direct relationship? i.e. higher the hardness, higher the elastic modulus.
Also, how could we interpret this relationship in materials like living bones?
Many thanks

Hi all,
I am very appreciate if any one can help me to explain how to get hysteretic cuve using abaqus.
I have tried a cantilever plate subjected to cyclic loading but when I saw the graphic desplacement vs load,
did not show a hysteresis loop. I input the data of material (stress and plastic strain in isotropic hardening), because when I chose kinematic hardening
the program did not run. It may be the data is not completely.
Thank you for your help
regard
