Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Muhammad Imran and I am working on experimental fatigue life calculation of aluminium-silicon alloy and validation of experimental results with abaqus fatigue results. The fatigue simulation is totally new topic for me and I don't have any idea how to apply fatigue loads in abaqus.
During fatigue experiments, 100MPa (constant amplitude, sinusoidal) stress is applied at 20Hz frequency which led to specimen failure after 268220 cycles. I want to input these parameters in abaqus.
Hello ANSYS masters, I am student of M.Tech and I am currently doing my dissertation on Friction stir welding stimulation using ANSYS Mechnical APDL. The problem I face is in defining the time substep in the load step defined as follows

Dear friends
Hi. I'm working on multiscale modeling of soft tissues. In my research I faced with a problem about computing the jacobian matrix in ABAQUS UMAT. In my model the material properties are function of external parameter like ef (ef is kind of strain and obtained from loading conditions) and relation between the "ef" and the strin in the model in unkown. Now, i want to calculate the jacubian matrix for this material, as you konw, the jacobian is defined as delta_sigma/delta_epsilon.
I have two question;
We offer a research position in the area of Computational Mechanics with a focus on isogeometric analysis and collocation methods applied to multiscale material modeling, beginning January 1st, 2015. The position is full-time fixed-term for 3 years.
