regarding Ansys birth and death element technique
please provide me some suggestions to use element and birth technique to devlope weldbead growth in Ansys thermal simulation.i am using Guassian movable heat source.
Postdocs in large deformation continuum mechanics at Carnegie Mellon-Qatar and at Michigan State University (East Lansing)
We anticipate three postdoc openings, two at Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar and one at Michigan State University (East Lansing). The research will involve developing continuum mechanical models for treating swelling in highly deformable soft biological tissue and for treating complex compliant media, meaning materials with a microstructure that actively rearranges either as a part of its normal function or else when triggered by external stimuli. Details can be found at:

Postdoc in mesoscale modeling for steels and smart materials (IMDEA Materials Institute)
The research group of Computational Alloy Design at IMDEA Materials Institute (Madrid, Spain) seeks a RESEARCH ASSOCIATE (Postdoctoral Researcher) (PhD Degree in materials/mechanical engineering or physics) to work in the area of mesoscale modeling for steels and smart materials. The selected candidate is expected to develop and validate a mesoscale computational tool using Landau/Phase Field model for modeling the microstructure development and solute redistribution in advanced steels and shape memory alloys under the supervision of a project leader.
Three ways to derive the classical plate model
Attached is part of my lecture notes for a graduate structural mechanics. In
the notes, we derived the classical plate theory, which is also called
the Kirchhoff plate theory, in three ways: Newtonian method, variational
method, and variational asymptotic method, using 3D elasticity theory as the
starting point. The self-contradictions of Kirchhoff assumptions and plane-stress assumptions used in both
Newtonian method and variational method are clearly pointed out. The
Old paper request from ASME JOURNAL OF APPLIED MECHANICS
I am looking for this paper and I am putting this request since I cannot purchase this from the Journal website. They have papers available only from 1960s.
Thanks

umat for wood constitutive model
Dear friends:
I have a question about wood which is anisotropic in material property that confused me for a long time.Now I ask what you master that how to write the subroutine of the constitutive model of wood, who have the subroutine if you can share it with me?Thank you!
Truly yours,
