K value calculation in Ansys
I am trying to calculate K values for a double tip crack orientated at 45 deg in a rectangular plate in ansys.I am stuck with a strange problem. When i give the Kcal command it says the crack face is not parallel to the active x axis. But i have checked the cordinates of the keypoints that i have used to create the crack. The crack is perfectly symetric about the active cordinate system about the crack tip.Can somebody help me please.
How to calculate natural frequency of a beam with 3 spans
We are designing a underslung crane with 4 end trucks (3 spans). The crane girder is made of Universal Beam (UB). Can someone help to calculate the first fundamental (natural) frequency of the beam?
Thanks
FEM: How should it be taught?
I am designing a new course on FEM, to be offered privately in India. It will emphasize fundamentals, and try to supply (or bring out) the physical interpretations behind the mathematical formalisms.
How about "Rejecta Mechanica"?
A friend just forwarded me the following link:

"
Rejecta Mathematica is a new, open access, online journal that publishes only papers that have been rejected from peer-reviewed journals (or conferences with comparable review standards) in the mathematical sciences. We are currently seeking submissions for our inaugural issue.

Making flexible metallic glasses
Well-known for its high yield strength, metallic glass often suffers from its low ductility and intrinsic brittleness, as discussed in a recent iMech jClub theme on plasticity and failure in metallic glasses led by Yanfei Gao.
Mechanics of growth and rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm
We present a coupled mathematical model of growth and failure of the abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). The failure portion of the model is based on the constitutive theory of softening hyperelasticity where the classical hyperelastic law is enhanced with a new constant indicating the maximum energy that an infinitesimal material volume can accumulate without failure. The new constant controls material failure and it can be interpreted as the average energy of molecular bonds from the microstructural standpoint.
