I am currently looking to fill an open PhD position in a project titled:
Advanced Virtual Design of 3D Printed Fusion Reactor Components
This is to continue recent work that uses X-ray tomography, high performance computing and finite element analysis to design the plasma facing wall of the ITER reactor. Recent related publications can be found below:
The current work aims to predict the work-hardening behavior of dual-phase (DP) steel, focusing on the effect of transformation-induced geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs). Equiaxed and banded microstructures were produced through suitable heat treatment cycles in a laboratory. Electron backscatter diffraction measurements were performed to characterize GNDs. The flow behavior was modeled within the micro-scale finite element method, considering the effect of the microstructures using the representative volume element (RVE) approach.
Has anyone every tried running AISC code check in abaqus? If yes, then Is there any commercial utility that can be used with abaqus output or any python script that anyone has written?
We formulate a geometric theory of nonlinear morphoelastic shells that can model the time evolution of residual stresses induced by bulk growth. We consider a thin body and idealize it by a representative orientable surface. In this geometric theory, bulk growth is modeled using an evolving referential configuration for the shell (material manifold). We consider the evolution of both the first and second fundamental forms in the material manifold by considering them as dynamical variables in the variational problem.
Dear Colleagues,
15th European Mechanics of Materials Conference (EMMC15) will be held in Brussel, Belgium, during 7 – 9 Sentember, 2016. As part of this meeting, we are organizing a session (S7) to bring together experts in modelling, simulation, manufacturing and experimental investigation in the field of functional and architectured materials to present and discuss recent advances. Topics of particular interest include (but not limited to)
Dear all,
Plz suggest/forward names of FEM experts to review my research paper.Five experts each from ASIA,Europe,Australia,South Africa and USA are required.Its a requirement of the publisher that author of research paper has to give 5 names of reviewers.So Please forward their names with institutional info and email id..
