Hi everybody,

I'm trying to model a 2D orthogonal cutting by Abaqus by using ALE method. I have some distortion of mesh in front of the cuuting noise so I try to define an eulerian surfaces around the cutting noise. 

One PhD student position available at the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engnieering of the University of Central Florida. Students with background in solid mechanics, computational mechanics and finite element analysis are particularly encouraged to apply. To apply, please send your resume and representative publications (if have) to Dr. Yuanli Bai (bai [at] ucf.edu).  The opening is until Spring 2014.

Dear All,



I intend to investigate the stress field resulted by a single dislocation in the vicinity of grain boundary at a poly crystalline structure. Thereby, I have to somehow model this crystalline defect, but how? is it doable in the CAE or should invoke the related subroutines?



 Thank you in advance for your tips.

i need help with esssay topic is and the higher order shear deformation theory with stretching effect for functionally graded plates i want and help to thank you

Can somebody help me to find about the convergence rate of MLS shape function?

When designing a permanent magnet machine, one of the most fundamental and difficult goals is to reduce the cogging torque curve. The challenge in reducing the cogging torque is to also decrease the numerical noise generated by the mesh. Finite element analyses and the advanced meshing functionality that is available through Abaqus/CAE allows for a faster and more accurate prototype.

Can i say, the center of buoyancy and the center of gravity of the immersed part are same?

Hello All!!!

 I am Arun, Master degree student in South Korea.

 My research field is : High strain rate experiemnts

 I did High speed tensile test for aluminium alloy at four different speeds (1m/s, 5m/s, 10m/s and 15m/s)

 I also did high temp tensile test for aluminium alloy at room temperature, 100 C, 250C

 Now i have the stress Vs Strain curve for High speed tensile test and high temperature test

 But, i don't know how to determine Johnson-Cook model parameter from the experimental results
