I am intending to carryout a Microbond single fibre pull-out simulation using abaqus. May someone please suggest to me a tutorial which uses cohesive element which I can follow as a guide to solving this problem?
Thank you.
3 PhD positions are now available at the Department of Innovation Engineering at the University of Salento in Lecce, Italy. Funding is provided by the European Research Council Starting Researcher Grant project "INTERFACES-Mechanical Modeling of Interfaces in Advanced Materials and Structures".
The successful applicant will work on topics related to computational methods for interface modeling, isogeometric analysis, and multiscale methods.
Applicants should possess the following qualifications/attributes:
Funded through SNF SINERGIA Project ‘Understanding nanofriction and dissipation across phase transitions’, we open in SISSA a postdoctoral position (‘assegno di ricerca’) in the area centered around nanoscale tribology (friction, dissipation, adhesion, wear) involving modeling, theory, and molecular dynamics computer simulations of nanofrictional and nonlinear dissipation phenomena, especially in presence of continuous phase transitions.
hi,
i am doing cutting simulation, but not able to produe the chips i known the johnson-cook damage parameters and all the required parameters, i am confused with weather .inp file to run in ABAQUS/Standerd or Explicit,
Hi iMechanicians,
Currently modelling pipes, I am trying to calculate J-integral for through-wall crack. I do not use XFEM method since it does not work very well with elastic-plastic materials then I use the classic approach and I must sketch a precise mesh around the crack tip, which is perpendicular to the external (and internal too) surfaceof the pipe.
Hi all.
I want to analyse a plate with a hole using ansys. But it has a material non-linearity. The stress strain law I want to use is σ = K εn
I want to know how it can be done. I've seen and tried ansys but it has options like kinematic hardening etc... but how to incorporate this relation...please guys it's urgent!!
Thanks.
The Superior Councils for Science and Technological Development of Chile will call for the FONDECYT Postdoctoral Grants Competition.
The available grants are for 2 or 3 years. The applicants must have obtained their Doctorate degrees between July 2009 and June 2012 (the exact dates will appear in the page of the agency later on).
A full-time post as a LATEST2 Research Associate is available for a 2 year fixed term subject to relevant skills and experience to work as part of the LATEST2 (Light Alloys Towards Environmentally Sustainable Transport: 2nd Generation) team in the School of Materials, University of Manchester.
Hi there ,
I am using modal analysis in abaqus to analize a cantilever beam that is subjected to an axial force. the material is elastic and Reighley damping is zero , but in order to define the parameters for analysis , there is a 5% damping for first mode. now , I want to obtain the dissipated energy of the beam through time. which energy output corresponds to the dissipated enrgy?
Is there a way to obtain the dissipated energy in elastic model with no damping at all?
