Looking for a postdoc in mechanics of granular materials
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a postdoc in mechanics of granular materials.
I’m currently a postdoc at INRIA Grenoble, France (National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control). My principal research interests focus on granular materials. They include (1) computational mechanics, (2) numerical modeling and simulation with DEM, (3) multi-scale approach and homogenization technique and (4) shock dynamics and nonlinear wave propagation. Here are my three principal publications:
Difference between Beam and Shell Model
Hello, I am trying to solve structural problem of loaded pipe structure in ANSYS.
I tried two method/way.
First I modelled pipe structure as BEAM element and defined the cross-section.
Secondly, I modelled the pipe structure as Shell element and defined thickness.
Now during post-processing, I noticed very large deviation in shear force, axial force and bending moment (nearly 3 times more in BEAM model cmpr to SHELL model)
Giant voltage-induced deformation in dielectric elastomers near the verge of snap-through instability
Dielectric elastomers are capable of large voltage-induced deformation, but achieving
such large deformation in practice has been a major challenge due to electromechanical
instability and electric breakdown. The complex nonlinear behavior suggests an important
opportunity: electromechanical instability can be harnessed to achieve giant voltage-induced
deformation.
Abaqus coding
Sir/Madam,
How to start to written subroutine coding in Abaqus?I have Abaqus/CAE .Can we written subroutine in this Abaqus/CAE.
Thank you.
viscoelasticity and poroelasticity in elastomeric gels
FEM simulation of Interface cracks in twolayered coatings by Abaqus/CAE
Sir/Madam,
I have Ni based metas over which i coated two layers first one is metallic powder(NiCoCrAl like) coating and second one (top layer) of ceramic materials is coated over first one.
Expansion behavior of cellular solids
The expansion behavior of cellular materials is especially attractive for potential applications such as design and development of bio-inspired adaptive materials since most of biological materials have a cellular microstructure at least at one of their hierarchical levels. Wood, bone, bamboo, ice plant and honeybee combs are examples of such natural materials.
