Hi everybody...
I'm a M.S Student. For my thesis named as " Flexible Pavement Analysis with Abaqus" I need to Model a 3-Layers Pavement with abaqus. But I have some problems, like my outputs don't have balance with real output and ...
For this I searched a lot for a sample or example like my thesis subject to found my wrong assumptions, but I haven't found it yet. Do you know where can I find this samples???
For the third time I am teaching the graduate course on soft active materials. This course is called Advanced Elasticity in the Catalog of Courses. In the last several years, I have dropped several traditional topics, and focused on thermodynamics and finite deformation. I have added several topics where both thermodynamics and finite deformation play significant roles, such as elastomeric gels and dielectric elastomers.
Does Anyhone have any idea about fliping the normal directions for a solid sections to be pointed in not out, because am having an error: nodes have incorrect normal definitions.
The Stress-Strain curve obtained by Nanoindentation reveals the correlation of "Stress" and"Strain" of a given material under nano controlled loads. Unlike the traditional Tensile Testing method of obtaining Stress-Strain curve data, which gives data at a macro level, the Nanoindentation method provides vital Stress-Strain curve data at nano level scale without the large and intense machinery. The Stress-Strain curve of various materials will vary widely.
Can you help me, I have trouble solving buckling analysis, can you help me to provide references / examples of solving buckling analysis steps on a space truss structure.
thanks

Dear iMechanica,
suppose you have a beam with a square cross-section, manufactured from an elastic-ideally plastic material.
Now apply a load that rises linearly in time, but is locally constant along the beam length. Upon sagging, the beam will develop a plastic zone beginning in the top and surface regions at mid-length.
This is the "straight" problem solved in Prager, Hodge: Theory of perfectly plastic solids, publisher: Springer
