As part of the 1st Pan-American Congress on Computational Mechanics (April 27-29, 2015 in Buenos Aires, Argentina), Marino Arroyo and I are organizing a minisymposium - ``Smooth Approximations on Unstructured Nodal Discretizations: Finite Elements, Spline-based Techniques and Meshfree.'' The deadline for abstract submissions is November 20, 2014.

Dear all,
I am a Ph.D student. I am trying to calculate the value of the j-integral for a 3D penny shaped crack embeddee in a continuum linear elastic solid using ABAQUS.
the first difficulty that I have met is that j-integral values are negative forr some nodes along the crack front.
I am pretty sure that the value of the normal to the crack front that I have used is correct.
Do you know some other reason for that?
The aim of the Conference is to provide an international forum for researchers, practitioners and for all who are converned with modern computational techniques and applicaitons in the field of contact and interface mechanics.
Prospective Speakers are invited by the organizing committee, Peter Wriggers and Giorgio Zavarise, to submit contributions until February. 2, 2015.
Topics:
For the 8th time, Croatian Society of Mechanics is organizing its international congress, which will be this time held in Opatija, Croatia, from 29 September to 2 October 2015. International Congress of the Croatian Society of Mechanics is triennial meeting established for the mutual exchange of scientific and technical information in the domain of Mechanics with a focus not only to the Central Europe but also beyond this region.
You can see two sliders. I apply force using one slider to another slider. Best part is one slider move little bit
and helps second slider
to slide 6 times length at 70 % force.
For More information please visit http://mechanicalresearch.info/
Energy Used to move first slider=force*distance
=100N*0.05m
=5Nm
Energy Get on Other Slider= Force*Distance
=Force applied by first slider*cos(45`)*distance
=100*0.7*0.25
=17.5

Learnt structure dynamics many many years ago. Forget most of them. Need to do FEM dynamic analysis.
Can anyone suggest a really good classic book that I can seft-learn. I want to know the fundamentals behind the analysis.
thanks
I am performing a thermal stress analysis of composites. I need to verfiy the results with an existing paper. The variation of the thermal force resultants, Nx, Ny, and Nxy, of the plate along the y direction . I would like to know how to obtain the same with abaqus.
