Hi everybody
I'm searching for the following papers
A.C. Kaya and F. Erdogan :"Stress Intensity Factors and COD in an Orthotropic Strip", Int J Fract (1980), pp 171-190
D. S. Dugdale "Yielding of Steel Sheets Containing Slits" J Mech Phys Solids, Vol 8 (1960), p 100-104
G I Barenblatt. The mathematical theory of equilibrium cracks in brittle fracture. Adv. Appl. Mech., pages 55-129, 1962.
Thanks for help
Hi .,,I applied heat flux in my model(mechanical APDL-ANSYS) but ANSYS calculate HEATFLUX for whole period of time..It MEANS AS I SELECT HIGHER TIME STEPS THE RESULTANT NODAL TEMPRATURES ARE HIGHER(INSTEAD OF LOWER TEMPRATURES AS A RESULT OF COOLING)..CAN anyone help me with applying heat flux for a short period of time(0.2 second) in ANSYS.I would be highly appreciated for your kind support.
Does anyone know of an employment website that caters to scientists? All the sites I have tried (Dice, ZipRecruiter, TechCareers, JobFox, Monster.com etc.) have been a disappointment. They send me tons of spam about jobs in sales (or other vague categories) with "unlimited earnings potential", and for only $99 they'll teach me how to convert my resume into ASCII format!

the iMAM is welcoming applications from outstanding post-doctoral researchers from outside the UK seeking research experience in our computational mechanics group. The successful candidate would join a group of 7 post-docs and 7 PhD students led by four academics and, in particular, an ERC Starting Independent Research Group.

New question!
I want to explore the same problem in two-dimensional structure (e.g. thin plate).
According to Love simplification, the cross section rotates but the shear
deflection is neglected. This means the edge cross section is not
vertical actually. Can I still assume the shear force on the edge cross
section is always vertical? e.g. free boundary condition on a circular plate under a concentrated in-plane edge force.

Dear Everyone,
Now, I am writing Abaqus’s subroutine (Vumat) for modelling fracture and damage in Ferritic Steels.
The failure theory I have to use in my PhD research is the Rousselier’s Theory.
I try to write Vumat by following the procedure of Rousselier model integration in PhD thesis namely ‘3D CAFE modelling of transitional ductile - brittle fracture in steels’ that can see from http://seis.bris.ac.uk/~mexas/thesis.pdf (Appendix.B).
Dear All,
I am modeling 3D beams with arbitrary cross sections and for that purpose I need to calculate the warping function numerically. The warping function ψ(y,z) is defined as a solution of the following Laplace equation with Neumann boundary conditions:
∂2ψ/∂y2 + ∂2ψ/∂z2 = 0 in Ω,
∂ψ/∂n = z*ny - y*nz on Γ,
where Ω is the cross sectional area, and Γ is its contour. This system can be solved by different numerical methods, for example, finite element method, boundary element method, finite differences...
Numerically I obtain that
