When Thomas Alva Edison first invented the practical electric light bulb in the late 18th century, he never would have imagined that his inventions would someday become a necessity for living and industrial production. Since that first possibility that electricity can be used in different applications in practical life, various experiments and innovations have guaranteed the introduction of different electrical devices and products.
I know the mechanics community have many codes to share. If you have developed engineering software including legacy Windows codes or linux codes, you can easily publish your code in the cloud and have it run on any devices including smart phones through cdmHUB.org. The codes could be simple codes you wrote for your dissertation or comprehensive commerical package like ABAQUS or ANSYS. You don't have to change your code, no source codes are needed. All you need to do is to upload your executable through a very straight forward way which only takes a few minutes.
An NIH-supported post-doc position in traumatic brain injury, seeking candidates with expertise in diffusion tensor imaging to correlate neuroimage changes with model-estimated tissue-level brain mechanical responses.
"We see from the above that the virtual work statement is precisely the weak form of equilibrium equations and is valid for non-linear as well as linear stress-strain (or stress-strain rate) relations." --- written by O.C. Zienkiewicz etc. at Page 71 of <The Finite Element Method: Its Basis and Fundamentals Sixth edition>
Here is my question: Will the virtual work still be valid for the case of non-linear strain-displacement relations (finite deformation)?
