Part 4 of Elements of Elasticity. Please see attached.

This problem set is due on Friday, Oct. 12.

My name's Alison Forsyth, I'm a G2 biomedical engineer at Harvard.  I did my undergrad at Syracuse University where I majored in bioengineering.  Prior courses in solid mechanics are: mechanics of materials, materials processing and properties, and advanced biomechanics.

My name is John Peter Whitney, but I go by Peter.  My parents set it up that way--I don't know why.  This is my answer to Pset 2, problem 6:

* I last took solid mechanics Fall 2001.  This sophomore-level course was taught by Professor Mark Spearing.  We used Crandall, Dahl, and Lardner.  I have forgotten almost everything from that class.

* My undergrad degree is in Physics, and my masters is in aerospace engineering (which I also studied but did not get a degree in as an undergrad).

hello,

I need some examples in *.pdf to learn fracture mechanics in abaqus. the best for me will be some example for 2d and 3d stationary crack and 2d and 3d for crack propagation

Overview

This is a blog entry about my background as it pertains to solid mechanics, written in effort to achieve maximum credit for Problem 6 on the ES 240 assignment due Friday, October 5, 2007.

Prior Courses in Solid Mechanics

My prior experience in solid mechanics is limited to half a semester of graduate "Mechanics of Materials" which I took as a listener at MIT in Spring 2005.  As such, much of the material covered in this subject is new to me.



Major History

hi everybody.

 I am interested to implement  tresca failure criteria in my plastic material model (ABAQUS/standard) using UMAT subrountine which is avaiable in ABAQUS code but it is primaryly made for Mises failure , so i made few attempt to modified it for tresca , but it did not work out, so if anyone have any idea , please guide me. 

thanks
