Submitted by Chandra Veer Singh on

Dear Colleagues,

It is my pleasure to invite you to the session on "Damage and Failure" in the 19the International Conference on Composite Materials (“ICCM19”) to be held in the beautiful city of Montreal, Canada from July 28-August 2, 2013. This session will include topics on:

UMAT

Dear ALL

I have this PDF and I have some information at this coding but have not information about the temprature dependent material properties.

what can I do??

sorry for that

For example see this function:

E(T)=E0*T^2+A*T+ ....

What can I define this type of Function?? 

Is my statement true? Can I do alike nonisotermal behaviour of the material???

 Please help me 

 Thanks so much

Regards

Dear All redears

Thanks for helping me about the defenition of solution dipendent satet variables.

I have another question and is that what can I do, if I want to define temperature dependent material propertiies at UMAT?

is it true to define temprature as a propertiy at the start and end od incerement and compute the propertiy at both cases?? I mean at end and start of it??

To clear the propblem for example i have this type of material peroperty:

E=E(T), NU=NU(T)

for example E and Nu are function of temprature.

Dear colleagues, we would like to draw your attention to the conference on Frontiers in Finite Deformation Electromechanics organised as EUROMECH Colloquium 545 - in cooperation with the Institute of Mechanics, TU Dortmund University, the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University, and the Department of Civil Engineering, Middle East Technical University.



The Equation constraint in Abaqus

Submitted by yunpeng jiang on

I have a question about the EQUATION constraint to apply periodical boundary conditions via Script in Abaqus. The detailes is as follows

(1) Create the node sets firstly in the PART Module;

(2) Using script to create node sets containing only one node;

(3) Using the following script to establish the EQUATION constraint

mdb.models['Job-1'].Equation(name=’Constraint-1′, terms=((1.0,

‘PART-1-1.Node-1′, 1), (1.0, ‘PART-1-1.Node-2′, 1), (-1.0, ‘RP1′, 1)))

Zanaboni Theorem and Saint-Venant's Principle

Submitted by Jian-zhong Zhao on

Violating the law of energy conservation, Zanaboni Theorem is invalid

and Zanaboni's proof is wrong. Zanaboni's mistake of " proof " is analyzed.

Energy Theorem for Zanaboni Problem is suggested and proved.

Equations and conditions are established in this paper for Zanaboni Problem,

which are consistent with , equivalent or identical to each other. Zanaboni

Theorem is, for its invalidity , not a mathematical formulation or

proof of Saint-Venant's Principle.
