Post-doc position at the TU Braunschweig within ERC StG "INTERFACES"
One Post-Doc position is now available at the Institut für Angewandte Mechanik of the Technische Universität Braunschweig, Germany, within the ERC Starting Researcher Grant "INTERFACES". The position is a full-time fixed-term position for 2 years with the possibility of renewal.
Interdisciplinary Symposium on Advanced Nano/Biosystems: Design, Fabrication, and Characterization(Sept. 25-27, 2013)
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign will host a Symposium on "Advanced Nano/Biosystem: Design, Fabrication and Characterization" to be held in Urbana, Illinois, USA, September 25 to 27, 2013. The primary objective of the symposium is to stimulate interdisciplinary discussion on recent advances in the rapidly evolving fields of nano/biomaterial design, fabrication and characterization among physics, chemistry, biology, mechanics, and material science.
Radial and tangential Stresses
Hi all
Can anyone tell me how to extract abaqus results in radial and tangential stresses at a node??
Thanks

RUM Call For Papers: Don't Miss Out!
The SIMULIA Regional User Meeting provides an invaluable platform
for industry and academia to join together and learn how the latest simulation
technologies and methods can accelerate and improve product
development.
Take advantage of this fantastic opportunity to showcase your work.
We encourage all users of SIMULIA including Abaqus FEA, Isight and SIMULIA SLM
to submit an abstract for consideration.
Thermomechanical coupled simulation
Hi all,
I am trying to input a termperature field as initial conditions in
abaqus, to use the temperature distribution from a previous temperature
simulation in an mechanical simulation. But when I check the Temperature
values in the mechanical simulation i get great differences between the
nodal values (NT) and the element values (TEMP).
Does anybody know the reason of this problem?
Can it be related to the element typ? So the TEMP values are the avereged values from NT?
