Defining Tensile/Compression Strength for Plastics in ABAQUS
Hi.
This is a simple question about defining material properties of a plastic I guess.
I have a value for tensile & compression strength and have to include this in my model, alongside the modulus & poisson ratio. I use *Elastic for modulus & poisson, but I don't know which card to use for tensile & compression.
Have already checked the manual, but the search 'tensile compression strength' leads me to the Hashin criteria page, which is not suitable for my material.
Can anyone help?

metal plasticity/viscoplasticity literature review
An intensive metal plasticity/viscoplasticity literature review is needed, with drawbacks and capabilities of different models. Any found previous work?
treatement of singularities in boundary element
I am working on 3d elastostatics with the BEM (boundary element methode), and want to know the different thechnics to treat singularities of the kernels. I want to know if there is a BEM source code available in the net.
DigiMAT: new software for composite material modeling
I'm working on modeling of mechanical properties of polymer based nanocomposites with clay.I have prepared a code for distributing plat like particles in polimar matrix (preparing RVE) with ABAQUS. I saw DIGIMAT software by www.e-xstream.com Company in internet some times ago. Now I want to test accuracy and application of this software one my project. I want to know if anyone in this club has had worked with this software and so if any one can provide me with a link of academic version of this software for a while.
master degree studentship
Hi, my name is christian wijaya. I'm the student of Diponegoro Unversity in Indonesia. I'm on the last term now, i'm doing my final project. I study gust load alleviation with active control. I'm having much interest of mechanical vibration, aeroelasticity, aeroservoelasticity and smart structure. and i've been searching a chance to continue my study entering MS degree and expecting to get the fellowship or research assistanship.
please give me an information and see my CV attached below.
Graduate Student Position at UBC, Vancouver, Canada
There is a potential opening for a graduate student research assistantship in Department of Mechanical Engineering, at The University of British Columbia, Vancouver, Canada. Interested students with strong academic background with interest in theory and experiments in the areas of dynamics and vibrations, applied (solid) mechanics are encouraged to apply. Initial queries to be addressed to Srikanth (spa21 [at] bath.ac.uk (spa21[at]bath[dot]ac[dot]uk)).
