Dear Colleague,
I have uploaded a video which shows the simulation of Slow-Fast crack propagation in ferroelectric single crystals:

Best regards,
I am an engineering doctor of School of Physics in Shandong University, China, graduated in July of 2011. And I have, during the doctor's research period, actively engaged myself in the area of thermoelectric material for 5 years, focusing particularly on the oxide thermoelectric material and module. I keenly desire to obtain a post-doc. Research position in a thermoelectric research group, and further continue the study of thermoelectric.Most of my work has published in peer-viewed journals. So I can do academic writing by myself.
Dear All,
I have the following problem. I simulate an indentation in two steps. At first step the indenter penetrate to the material. At the second step it withdraws from it. The problem, at the second step force simply drops. What could be the reason? Incorrect boundary conditions, very soft behaviour of material??? Specialists, please help.
Best regards

Hello Everybody
I'm currently working on on the tubular weld of joint modeling using ANSYS
Problems that I faced was how to combine elements of the shell (for chord and brace) with solid elements (for weld) so that stress transfer can occur between two elements
one technique that I know is using MPC
is there any among you who has a tutorial about it ..?
please help.....
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.
