As the importance of micromechanics is increasingly realized in composites design & manufacturing at the industry level, cdmHUB is launching a Micromechanics Simulation Challenge for the purpose of establishing the best practices for homogenization and dehomogenization needed in composites design and manufacturing.
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering invites applications for several tenure-track faculty positions to begin July 2015 or thereafter. Appointments will be at the assistant or untenured associate professor level. In special cases, a senior faculty appointment may be possible. We will consider exceptional candidates in a range of areas, broadly defined. Further information about the department can be found at this page.
We are looking for PhD candidates to conduct research at the following two interdisciplinary subfields, starting from Spring of 2015. Interested individuals are encouraged to apply (suz10 [at] psu.edu)
1) Mechanics in electrochemistry. We develop atomistically informed continuum mechanics models, coupling mechanics and lithium reaction and diffusion to account for a wide range of in-situ experimental phenoemna. Some recent publications:
hi Can anybody give me the elastic lamina or engineering constant properties of GFRP composites with roving E-glass formed by Araldyte LY 556 and Hardener HY 951.
Thanks and Regards
baij
i want to know the material grade which is used in APPLE phones/laptop circuit chassis
i know that aluminium is used .grade please????
Recent experiments showed that the Lode parameter, which distinguishes between axisymmetric and shear dominated stress states, has a profound effect on material ductility, especially at low stress triaxiality. Consequently, the theoretical framework for void growth and coalescence is currently being revisited, which often involve performing representative volume element (RVE) calculations. The present study investigates an RVE composed of a cubic unit cell containing a spherical void at its center.
3D numerical simulations of fatigue damage of multiscale fiber reinforced polymer composites with secondary nanoclay´reinforcement are carried out. Macro–micro FE models of the multiscale composites are generated automatically using Python based software. The effect of the nanoclay reinforcement (localized in the fiber/matrix interface (fiber sizing) and distributed throughout the matrix) on the crack path, damage mechanisms and fatigue behavior is investigated in numerical experiments.
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering at the George Washington University invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the level of Assistant Professor starting fall semester 2015. The primary field of interest is mechanics of geomechanical and structural systems. Applications from women and under-represented minority groups are strongly encouraged.
The attached notes are written for a course on plasticity. I will update new posts on my twitter account: https://twitter.com/zhigangsuo.
Hi all,
We've recently published a paper on
It deals with nanoindentation and numerical simulation of the interface zone in concrete repair systems.
Greetings
