Fully funded PhD position at Imperial College London

Submitted by v.tagarielli on Tue, 12/30/2014 - 14:19

We are looking for a PhD researcher to work at numerical simulations of the electro-mechanical response of nano-reinforced polymers, within the Marie Curie training network “TheLink”. The position is fully funded for 36 months and funding includes tuition fees and a competitive maintenance/salary, as well as additional benefits for those with a family. The researcher will work towards a PhD in Mechanics of Composites at Imperial College London, Department of Aeronautics, under the supervision of Dr V.L. Tagarielli and Dr S.T.

Real knee motion in CAD , the best if it is in Solidwords

Submitted by sabrihussin on Mon, 12/29/2014 - 20:23

Where I can get for free or buy a knee joint complete anatomy ( including femur, tibia, meniscus, ligament, and cartilage). I need a knee joint with accurate knee motion for flexion-extension, internal and external rotation. It supposed to be real human motion. If possible I need it in CAD, it is the best if I can get in Solidworks assembly motion. Really appreciate the information. Thank in advance

The present project will be supervised by a mentor from the Faculty of Civil Engineering at the Czech Technical University in Prague. The project is supported by the European Union, through the Operational Program Research and Development for Innovations, project No. CZ.1.07/2.3.00/30.0034.

Hollow cylinder v/s Solid cylinder

Submitted by Zartasha Mustansar on Sun, 12/28/2014 - 16:55

I have a cylinder of length 310 mm, diameter 60 mm, Outer radius 30mm, inner radius 3 mm and thickness 27mm and Young's modulus 20GPa. I am interested to calculate change of displacement in both hollow and solid cylinder. However, the value I am getting in hollow cylinder is less than solid cylinder. Any idea why so? wherein the deformation magnitude of hollow cylinder should be quite greater than the solid one?

Thanks,
