Barenblatt's paper

Submitted by Konstantin Volokh on Tue, 03/23/2010 - 10:33

I attach Barenblatt's paper which is difficult to access. The paper includes a milestone idea of the cohesive surface that allows us to get rid of unphysical singularities in the older formulations of fracture mechanics.

coupled-Field Analysis

research

hi all,

In coupled field analysis, the first step is to do thermal analysis, then these thermal results will be imported to structural analysis then the couled analysis is carried out.

My question is,

for example if the body is subjected to 300deg C. The thermal analysis is carried out with 300deg C.

Postdoctoral Position in Biomedical Engineering

job

A postdoctoral research position is available in Dr. Rugonyi’s lab in the Biomedical Engineering (BME) Division of the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) in Portland, OR. We are looking for a self-motivated researcher to work full time on projects related to blood flow dynamics and biotransport. The selected candidate will have many opportunities to collaborate with the researchers in our team as well as across the university and to generate new approaches to study blood flow, biotransport and/or responses of the underlying tissue.

Reinforced Concrete in ANSYS

Submitted by Jeffrey W. Kemper on Mon, 03/22/2010 - 19:21

I am conducting a senior design project in ANSYS. I am modeling a folded reinforced concrete plate and have never used ansys before. Does anyone have any tutorials that involve non-linear analysis? I am trying to get a force vs. deflection curve and I am having troubles.

Thanks

Applying heat flux for a specific amount of time using ANSYS

Submitted by daltoy3 on Sun, 03/21/2010 - 17:24

Hi everyone,

how can I apply a 'X' amount of heat flus for a specific amount of time? It'll be helpful to include the steps especially for the part on specifying the amount of injection time (say 3 micro seconds)

Thanks!!

Find arrest time of crack by using strain gages

Submitted by Nguyen Van Chau on Sat, 03/20/2010 - 01:44

I have experiment by using strain gages series which mounted along crack path propagation direction, I can find exactly the initatial time of crack but not know how to find arrest time of crack. Crack tip stops between 2 strain gages and the signal of them can be got. Following is the Figure of strain gage mounted on specimen.

The J integral

Submitted by Zhigang Suo on Fri, 03/19/2010 - 14:13

For a crack in an elastic body subject to a load, the elastic energy stored in the body is a function of two independent variables: the displacement of the load, and the area of the crack. The energy release rate is defined by the partial derivative of the elastic energy of the body with respect to the area of the crack.
