Research Positions in Modeling of Solids and Structures

Submitted by Emilio P. Calius on

Please see attachment for details of Computational Mechanics researcher openings at Industrial Research (www.irl.cri.nz), a Crown Research Institute in beautiful New Zealand.

The role involves the application of advanced modeling and simulation methods to research on solids and structures, with an emphasis on complex systems such as composites and meta-materials, or solids with multiple defects and discontinuities.

The position is research oriented but also provides opportunities to consult with industry on commercial projects.

Candidates with expertise in theory and computation of elastic wave propagation, the mechanical behavior of composites, structural dynamics, or acoustics are encouraged to apply.

Problem with picking up nodes and elements to create a set

Submitted by Kanishk Gupta on

Hello  FRIENDS ,

I am  currently working  on modelling a 2d axisymmetric model of a pipeline in Abaqus CAE but i have a probem with creating nodal and element sets .So could anyone could please tell me hoe to do it .Also how to  submit those particular nodal sets and elemental sets for analysis .

Software to generate x-ray diffraction pattern

Submitted by cdeng on

Hello all,

 Does anyone know any software that can generate x-ray diffraction pattern for polymer? I used to have Cerius2 which can do the job very well, but unfortunately the license expired some months ago and I am looking for some alternative software that can do similar job. Right now I have all the structures saved in .msi format. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks a lot!

FEMLAB-COMSOL Multiphysics

Submitted by Catherine on

Hi,

I am a PhD student and I have just started to work on FEMLAB and was just wondering if someone could help me with FEMLAB. I am using at the moment the PDE modes-Weak forms to solve flow over topography using the lubrication equation. I have implemented the lubrication equations into the subsomain settings and set the boundary conditions  but i do get wrong results. Could you please advice where i might have done wrong.
Any suggestions will be really appreciated.
Many thanks
Catherine
