when I model excavation with low permeablity soil problem is not converging,due to the negligible vaule of excess pore pressure throught the soil.How can I resove this problem for the real excavation time .(If I run the analysis within very short period of time , results can be obtained under undrained ccondition)
how can I model dewatering during excavation using ABAQUS
EMI, the Engineering Mechanics Institute of ASCE will hold its annual conference on June 2-4, 2011 at Northeastern University in Boston, MA. Prof. Ming L. Wang, Prof. Dionisio P. Bernal and Prof. Jerome F. Hajjar will be the Co-Chairs of the EMI 2011 Conference. For details, visit http://www.northeastern.edu/emi2011/ .
Two-point tensor appears in some of continnuum mechanics reference books.
1. In wikipedia, two-point tensor is interperated as:" Two-point tensors, or double vectors, are tensor-like quantities which ... "
2.Physically speaking, a tensor is a quantity that should not be changed by coordinate transformation while two-point tensor seems to have essential relationship with coordinates.
Dear Colleagues,
I would like to bring your attention to the symposium on "Advanced
Modeling and Simulation of NEMS/MEMS and Nano/Micro-fluidic Devices ". The
Symposium will be held at the University of Michigan from April 19 to April
20, 2011.
This Symposium brings together leading researchers in this field to review
recent progress and latest developments and review future challenges in
NEMS/MEMS and Micro/Nano-Fluidics.
To register, please go to:
The University of Exeter will shortly announce several new chairs it is seeking to fill.
The chairs are full tenured chairs and in the following areas -
Cell Mechanics (two chairs, one nominally experimental and one nominally theoretical).
Structural Dynamics, possibly with an aerospace flavour.
If you are interested, or know someone who might be, please contact me (c.w.smith-at-exeter.ac.uk) for an informal discussion.
Regards,
Chris Smith
I've a result from thermal transient analysis. The result shows the maximum and minimum temperature of 4cm * 4cm plate with thickness of 1 mm.
Since the temperature of that plate is not uniform, so I'd like to see the average temperature from overall plate. How can I do it?
Thank you.
Hi...
I am modeling orthotropic plate containing holes and cracks which element canI use for this purpose..?
can anyone suggest what type of element I can use for above purpose..?
thanks in advance.......
