Position is available (starting from January 2014) for a postdoctoral fellow to carry out an industry sponsored project on carbon fiber composite modeling. The contract is initiated for one year, with possible extension if work progresses satisfactorily. The research will focus on (1) micromechanics modeling of elastic and viscoplastic behavior of injection molded carbon fiber composites; (2) homogenization techniques and constitutive model development for vibration, strength and impact simulations of carbon fiber composites.

Dear all,

Hi,

I am working on short glass fibre reinforced composites.

Is there a material model which can predict the fatigue behaviour of the composite structure at high temperature.

Thank you

Regards

The first International Symposium on Energy Challenges and Mechanics will take place at Aberdeen, Scotland, UK, on 8-10 July 2014. This symposium is about energy challenges and roles of mechanics as a means for seeking solutions, involving multiple disciplines in technology, science and management. The topics cover both sides; we will look at applications in various energy resources including fossil fuels, and many different forms of renewable energy.

I need pdf or video tutorials for modeling of beam column joint in ansys . please help me any one

Hello all,

hi,i have been doing non-linear buckling analysis using STATIC RIKs method

my model specification:   length:65 metre, dia=2.85metre,thickness=0.38meter 

 and i am having the following doubts:

 1.i have done Eigen value buckling analysis first and got the mode values..but for getting the mode shapes which load value i have to apply????(whether calculated euler buckling load value)

2.i have given imperfection as 0.0038  i.e..,10% of thickness value is it correct????
