i am working on ABAQUS, trying to carry out pushover analysis, modeled dam body as well as foundation, can anybody explain me how to carry out pushover analysis of dam ,as well as which interaction is suitable in between dam and foundation interface.
thank you in advance.
Discussion of fracture paper #41 - Are dislocations good or bad guys? It depends!
Around Shifting from macroscopic to microscopic plasticity helps us understand mechanisms that can help us develop high-strength metallic materials. Things that prevent dislocation dynamics or generation, such as other dislocations and grain boundaries in polycrystalline materials, lead to higher strength.t...

Linear Instability Signals the Initiation of Motion of a Twin Plane Under Load
by Chang-Tsan Lu and Kaushik Dayal
Abstract
I have extracted field output from ABAQUS odb file and I want to take log of that field. In ABAUQS scripting manual, in section 9.8.2 it has been mentioned that
log10(field output)= field output
When I am trying to do this compilation gives me error. "a float value required"
Please guide me if i am making any mistake
Also if possible, suggest how can I get rid of this problem?
I'm currently studying FEA/CFD and BEM for thermal simulation of custom dies within custom package mounted on custom PCB with encapsulate material (epoxy). I getting familar with CFD concept which seem overkill from ANSYS IcePack (too expensive) but exploring BEM technology from E3D in france (via Vishay).
I have access to MATLAB from other company to try it out for thermal modelling (BEM).

i'm in my first year of doctorat level, and i work on meshfree methods applied in mechanical field, i would ask for recent research in this field and some indications for : what new to explore (composit materials, crack and fractures, other new materials...) in this field
