First of all, I would like to thank you all for the response. I apologize for the much delayed reply.
In what follows, I will list a few references about
dynamic behaviors of materials at large and the testing techniques. Of
course I will definitely omit some important books or papers since after
all I am more a materials scientist. Therefore, if you know of know of
any good references, please let us know.
The final phase of The 1st Y.C. Fung Student Paper Competition on Biomechanics, Biophysics, and Biomatreriomics was held at Northeastern University, Boston, on June 3rd, 2011.
Seven finalists have participated the oral presentation, and they are:

During the Acta Astronautica Editorial Board held at the 61st IAC, Prague September 2010, Editor-in-Chief Rupert Gerzer announced that due to his steadily and steeply increasing work load at the DLR, he felt it best to turn the reins of Editor-in-Chief over to the very qualified and able (Rock) Jeng-Shing Chern who has served as Comission IV Editor since 2008.

Hello all,
I am trying to model concrete as an elastic material in ABAQUS. The model can be any simple structure (cube, beam or column) but the main feature is that concrete behaviour is elastic up to a limiting strain (St. Venant's theory). Which of the Failure criteria in ABAQUS i should be using (Elasticity or brittle cracking)? if neither would you mind explaining other options?
Thanks
Hussam
Hi all,
I 'd like to ask whether anyone has applied XFEM for a user-material (UMAT). What is the process to do that? Could anyone provide some advice, documentation or guidelines?
All the best,
Panos
p.s. I 've heard that a UEL code is needed to couple XFEM with UMAT.
Leuven,Belgium, May 31, 2011. Materialise is proud to announce the newest release of the Mimics Innovation Suite. The software solution, already renowned for being the fastest and easiest method for getting accurate 3D surface models from imaging data, is now faster and more user-friendly than ever. An example of the improved features is that several

Dear friends,
I want to model axial surface crack in pipes using ABAQUS. I had knowledge in modeling through wall cracks. I need some modeling instructions related to axial crack modeling in pipes. I appreciate your effort and thankful to you.
Regards,
