circular plate on elastic foundation
Hi all
I'm looking for a reference paper to comparison the results of
bending of circular (annular) plate rested on elastic foundation.
Fracture of Rubber
A rubber band can be stretched several times its original length. This large deformation may hide its brittleness: the strain to rupture can be markedly reduced by the presence of a crack. This lecture describes fracture mechanic of highly deformable materials, such as rubbers and gels.
Periodic Boundary Condition in ABAQUS
I am new to ABAQUS. Can someone please tell me how to apply a periodic boundary condition using *EQUATION key word in ABAQUS?
Postdoctoral Fellowships in elastomers and related material sciences at Harvard
Applications are invited for one or more postdoctoral positions at the School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Harvard University. The projects will be related to elastomer materials with relevance to their optical properties and device applications. Prior hands‐on experience in one or more areas such as polymer materials synthesis, optical measurements, polymer processing is required. The project will have a strong experimental focus and will encompass elastomer processing, physical characterization, mechanics as well as fabrication of devices based on actuation with elastomers.

Looking for Postdoctoral Position
I am currently a doctoral candidate at Louisiana State University, and expect to complete my PhD degree requirements by Fall 2010. My doctoral dissertation is conducted under the direction of Prof. M. M. Khonsari, and looks at the use of a relatively new methodology for the fatigue of structural components. In my research, I developed an effective and new criterion for fatigue life monitoring of the components subjected to cyclic loading based on thermodynamic entropy concept.
Run ANSYS through MATLAB
Hello All,
Does anyone know if it is possible to run ANSYS as a solver through MATLAB ? I want to run optimization in MATLAB and change some variables whether they are geometry or material variables and run ANSYS through MATLAB to solve especially ANSYS CFX or Workbench where I can have multiphysics.
If this is possible, I would appreciate it if you can share the method of how to do so.
Thank you all
