Dear All
I am modeling a workpiece supported in fixtures and being machined. I use the FEM ( Ansys) to simulate this set up. I need to know at the stiffness of wp at the wp-fixture contact point . Stiffness is found by applying unit force at one contact point while fixing all others.. Inverse of displaceemnt gives the stiffness in that direction. I have two questions reg this.
The Department of Civil Engineering of the University of Minnesota (USA) and the Solid Mechanics Laboratory of the Ecole Polytechnique (France) have established a joint PhD program in Civil Engineering.
Please, see the document attached for a detailed description of the program, host institutions and participating faculties.
Hi everyone,
In order to simulate nonlocal damage in trabecular bone structures in
ABAQUS, I need to implement the constitutive laws into the user element
subroutine (UEL), since it is not possible to implement nonlocal FE in
UMAT, as far as I know!
I would be very much grateful if someone, who has experience in this
regard, esp how to implement 3D elements, e.g. C3D8, into a UEL code,
shares some knowledge.
Best,
Hadi
Subra Suresh, the Dean of Engineering, of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, is in line to become the next Director of the National Science Foundation (NSF), according to this post at Science.
The NSF director must be confirmed by the Senate, although it would be unusual for a nominee to attract any opposition.
i was using extra shape function for modelling 8 noded brick element. what is the extra shape function used in ansys for solid5 element modelling voltage degree of freedom?
I am looking for the value of Bulk viscosity and shear viscosity of PMMA at room temperature . If anybody has any idea i request for a help to supply the value to me
Thanking you
Best regards..

Google's logo is very cute today !
Today is defined as Pi day, it is also Albert Einstein's birthday. Besides, today is Japaness lover's "white day".
According to Wiki, "In the 1980s the Japanese National Confectionery Industry Association launched a successful campaign to make March 14 a "reply day", where men are expected to return the favour to those who gave them chocolates on Valentine's Day, calling it White Day for the color of the chocolates being offered."
