All,
I am seeking a student for the summer (May-August) to begin working on the conversion of an existing MATLAB-based code for the Database Assisted Design (DAD) of tall steel buildings under wind loads to C++. Obviously, the only prerequisite is proficiency in both C++ and MATLAB. A background in wind engineering is not needed as you will learn along the way.
Hi..
i want to know, how to obtain the stress contours of users choice in ansys.
i want to find stress contours rangeing from 0.2 to 2 in the interval of 0.2 in a problem of plate drilled with a circular hole.
please help me to find the solution.
thanking you

When an indenter is pressed into a gel to a fixed depth, the solvent in the gel migrates, and the force on the indenter relaxes. Within the theory of poroelasticity, the force relaxation curves for indenters of several types are obtained in a simple form, enabling indentation to be used with ease as a method for determining the elastic constants and permeability of the gel. The method is demonstrated with a conical indenter on an alginate hydrogel.

Hi
I am trying to find out the propagation in a bone using FEA in ABAQUS , The bone is given material properties of Polyurethane foam since I have the bone models made up of polyurethane foam, I have created a notch/crack on it and want to know how can I find the propagation of crack till the complete bone breaks.
Thank you
