Continuum mechanics, Micromechanics and Nanomechanics
Hi all,
Can anyone explain me the characteristic features of continuum mechanics, micromechanics and nanomechanics? My present level of understanding is:

Ph.D. Research Assistantship Position in Multi-Scale Computational Study of the Fracture of Concrete at CU Boulder
A Ph.D. Research Assistantship position in multi-scale computational mechanics of fracture of composites (with application on concrete) will be available to start in January 2010 in the Department of Civil Engineering, at the University of Colorado at Boulder, Colorado, USA.
Calculation of potential energy in conditions of prescribed displacement and prescribed loading
A question has arised when I read a book about fracture mechanics recently.
This question is about the calculation of potential energy in "fixed-grips" (prescribed displacement) and "dead-load" (prescribed displacement).

Looking for work done on multiple holes in composite plates
Hi all,
I am looking for any literature on the solution the analysis of composite plates with multiple holes in them. I have been able to find plenty of information about single holes in composite plates but none on multiple hole interaction, hence this call for help.
Thank you in advance,
Fernando
Elastic-Perfectly Plastic in Abaqus Explicit
Dear Mechanical Engineers,
It's my pleasure to be one of your group. I have a question in Abaqus Explicit and all my friends recommended me to as iMechanica as the explicit Abaqus is more popular to you than us as civil engineers.
