New International Master Program in Computational Materials Science

Submitted by Sebastien Groh on

Hi,

I am writing to inform you about a new master in Computational Materials Science offered at TU Bergakademie Freiberg, Germany. It is an international master program, and all the lectures will be given in English.

To enhance multidisciplinary research, the program is open to students from different background, mechanical engineering, solid state physics and materials science.

 In this study, for the first time, the transverse vibrational model of a viscous-fluid-conveying

single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) embedded in biological soft tissue is developed.

Nonlocal Euler–Bernoulli beam theory has been used to investigate fluid-induced vibration of

Abstract:

Numerical simulations based on finite element modelling are increasingly being

developed to accurately evaluate the tensile properties of GLARE (GLAss fibre REinforced

aluminium laminates). In this study, nonlinear tensile behaviour of GLARE Fibre Metal

Hello all,

I am doing my masters thesis on composites.Its material with cnt yarn embedded in steel.I modeled cnt yarn as solid and matrix as soilid and glued them together.the values of youngs modulus for yarn is lower than that of the matrix.I obtained some results on stresses bt the maximum stress is seen along the tip tranverse to the ysrn axis?I hope the stress should be around the yarn.

I am using ansys 13 for the analysis.Could you please help me in soving this problem???
