 Dear all,

For my final year project, I've done the 3D model of a test fixture which is used for the compression testing of a specimen.

When I apply a downward vertical displacement to top Slider B, eventually the 2-slider linkage mechanism will cause the bottom Slider A to move horizontally and to compress the cube shaped specimen.

Hi, 

I must use user subrutine UEL in a Python script.

elemType1 = mesh.ElemType(elemCode=???, elemLibrary=???)

p.setElementType(regions=r, elemTypes=(elemType1, ))

what are the elemCode and elemLibrary that i must use????

 Thanks for help 

hi,

i just want to know either abaqus/cae can modul the reinfocement..or we need to add the text of reiforcement on the input file from CAE pre-processing.

Has someone worked on the parallel computing in the multibody system to the vehicle dynamics? It's what I am doing now. I am faced to make a choice, OpenMP or MPI? OpenMP is a little  easy to program, but with less portability. I prefer MPI and I think if it is a best choice to parallelize the constraint libraries, although it is a bit difficult to program. Am I right? Is anyone  also doing it now? Opinions and suggestions are welcome!

Hi, does anyone know publications incorporating both linear viscoelasticity and phase transition? For example, both phase can be transferred to each other and each phase has its own relaxation function G(t). For arbitrary loading and temperature histories, at some special time the material experiences the phase transition. Thanks a lot:)

Dear Colleagues,

On behalf of my co-organizers, Jianqi Li, Dapeng Yu, Xiaolei Xu and Lianmao Peng, we cordially invite you to attend the International Workshop on In Situ Electron Microscopy in Advanced Materials Research, held at Institute of Physics, Chinese Academic of Science on May 31 to June 2, 2008, in Beijing, China.

Dear colleagues,
