3D printing and numerical analysis are combined to design a new class of architected materials that contain bistable beam elements and exhibit controlled trapping of elastic energy. The proposed energy-absorbing structures are reusable. Moreover, the mechanism of energy absorption stems solely from the structural geometry of the printed beam elements, and is therefore both materials- and loading-rate independent.

6th International Conference on Mechanics of Biomaterials and Tissues

Two PhD and two post-doctoral positions are available at IMDEA Materials Institute within the framework of a project funded by the European Reseach Council to develop multiscale modeling strategies –together with the corresponding experimental validation– to simulate the microstructural development during solidification and thermal treatments as well as the mechanical behavior at different length scales of Al and Mg alloys.
More details and information to apply can be found in the enclosed files.
The Asian/Australian Rotorcraft Forum is one of the premier events in the rotorcraft community's calendar bringing together manufacturers, research centers, academia, operators and regulatory agencies to discuss advances in research, development, design, manufacturing, testing, and operation of rotorcraft.
Dear Mechanicians,
time and again the question of modeling moving heat sources pops up, often in the context of laser heating.
One can achieve this using the subroutine DFLUX in ABAQUS.
I decided to post some links here to avoid responding with a longer explanation to every individual seeking assistance.
Please note that I have never worked with any one of these codes and have no access to ABAQUS at present.
No warranty is given by me.
"ELEMENT DELETION" is available in Abaqus Explicit:
Sir,
I want to ask you a question,
I debug a constitutive model about the cohesive element in ABAQUS.
You know the key point of this element's constitutive model is Traction-Seperation Relationship.
I want to test my model by Umat, not the Uel.
So I want to ask whether Stran is the relative displacement(not strain) of the Gauss point in this type element.
And how Dstran is calculated by UEL subroutine!!!
