LONDON, UK and NEW YORK, NY, USA – May 18 , 2015 – Advanced Design Technology (ADT), a global leader in the development of advanced turbomachinery design methods and the TURBOdesign Suite is delighted to sponsor and exhibit at the ASME Turbo Expo 2015 in Montreal, Canada on 15 - 19 June where advanced methods for multidisciplinary optimization of turbomachinery components will be demonstrated.
The School of Mechanical Engineering and Mechanics (宁波大学机械工程与力学学院) is actively recruiting in all levels of broad fields and subjects of mechanical engineering include but NOT limited to Solid Mechanics, Fluid Mechanics, Thermomechanics, Vibrations, Noise, Machine Design, CAD, Manufacturing Engineering, Automotive Engineering, Material Processing, and others. The School has been receiving additional fundings in developing programs of undergraduate and graduate on Mechancial Engineering, Mechanics, Industrial Engineering, and other areas.
Hello everyone
I want to model the contact non-linearity between flange-web connection of FRP I-beam. I have modeled the flange and web of 3D deformable of shell element. I can't use VCCT technique between flange-web connection because it is based upon two surfaces not on one edge (i.e. web) and one surface (i.e. flange).
Kindly give some guidance to model the debonding of flange and web of I-beam.
Consider a ``neat'' function such as what an engineer is most likely to use in his typical theory/work. Such a function would typically be: (i) defined over a single finite interval, (ii) continuous throughout, and (iii) smooth enough. In other words, the sort of a function they used when they introduced the very idea of a graph of a function to you, back in high-school. ... Feel free to add any other qualifications you like, but note them explicitly, e.g., (iv) bounded throughout, and (v) periodic.

I am co-organizing a workshop entitled «Recent Trends in Predicting and Monitoring the Integrity of Composites (COMINT)» with Profs. Gilles Lubineau and Raul Tempone at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) and Prof. John Botsis at the École polytechnique fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL). The aim of the workshop is to advance research on integrity prediction and monitoring of composites structures and will be held at KAUST on June 1st and 2nd 2015.
Symposium Title: “Mechanics & Physics of Soft Materials”
Organizers: Oscar Lopez-Pamies, Xuanhe Zhao, Yuhang Hu & Stephan Rudykh
Sessions: 4
The 52th Annual Technical Meeting of the Society of Engineering Science will be held at Texas A&M University, October 26 - 28, 2015. For this occasion we are organizing a symposium on architectured materials. This symposium will cover research on the structure, mechanics, design, fabrication and mechanical performance of all categories of architectured materials including but not limited to lattice materials, metamaterials, topologically interlocked materials and bio-inspired materials.
It is with great sorrow that I heard that our colleague from tel Aviv University, Prof. Y. Benveniste passed away recently. This is a great loss for the Israeli Mechanics Community in particular and for the community in general. I am sure he will be remembered as an exceptional scientist and a very modest and kind person.
He will be missed.
To his family, I adress my sincere condolences
D. Rittel
