Dear Colleagues,
I am studying on Interlaminar Properties of 3D Textile Composites. Especially I am focusing on Fracture Toughness of Stitched Composites. Anyone can suggest useful Journal Papers about Stitched Composites and/or Mode I- Mode II Testing for Literature review?
Kind Regards,
Devrim Goktas
The three by three matrix is a workhorse for mechanicians, yet the study of this tool is seldom addressed mathematically. One reason is that the space of such matrices is nine-dimensional, quite beyond diagrams and vision. The advantage of a mathematical investigation of the matrix space is clear in the study of two by two real matricies where rotations, shears, and squeezes correspond to area-preserving transformations of the plane. For transformations of space that preserve volume there is a much richer variety of phenomena that may correspond to mechanical events.
Hi, everyone:
I am using ABAQUS to do my final dissertation:nonlinear analysis of steel members.
When I simulated the beam with shell element, first I define reference points at both end of the beam and assign 'RIGID BODY/PIN OR TIE' to nodes at the edge,after that I applied bending moments and boundary conditions to both reference points. But after I finished the buckling analysis, the result is not reasonable,the eigen value is about two times the the value I expected.
Dear colleagues,
we recently published a paper on measuring bulk properties of irradiated copper from nanoscale samples:

Hope you find this interesting!

Hi,
I am working on a 3D contact problem where a spherical part is pressed against another spherical surface. I was wondering what variables may be interesting to study for this problem. I decided to look at the contact area CAREA, the contact pressure CPRESS and the stress S but I am not able to find how Abaqus defines and calculates these variables, does anyone know?
Thanks
Hi there! I am really new to Abaqus and I need to model a composite
laminated crash cone under impact to a flat solid wall (analytical
surface is used). I modelled a cone with a layers of conventional shell
elements with hashin failure criteria and surface-based cohesive
behaviour as interaction between layers representing the interface of
composite laminates. The model runs successfully but once I checked the
energy balance, the damage dissipation energy from the cohesive, it
turned out to be NEGATIVE (I think this is wrong).
The final announcement, the conference program and detailed information about the IASS-IACM 2012 will be available at the meeting web page:http://www.gf.unsa.ba/iass-iacm-2012/
