Researching my family tree
In my spare time I partake in genealogy studies. In order to have an effective strategy it makes sense to use software tools.

Free FEM-pack development for everybody
Dear All! If it will be interesting
for you please look at my FEM-pack FASTRAN. This software was developed for
dynamic analysis of the thin-walled shell-type structures and includes:
preprocessor (only for view early-developed FEM-models), processor (fast sparse
solver) and postprocessor (for view calculation results). Your opinion will be
very interesting for me.
Are there some examples about membrane large deformation simulation used FEAP?
I try to use FEAP7.4 to simulate membrane large deformation. But there are some difficulties. I want to learn from some examples.
Modeling fatigue crack growth in abaqus using xfem
Hi
Dear all,
I am new to abaqus and I have to model a fatigue crack growth using xfem.
I have searched for a tutorial for that and I could not find anything useful.
Does anybody know where can I find the tutorial or smth helpful?
tnx in advance,
Postdoc in Mechanics of Materials at University of Sydney, Australia
An exciting research position for a Postdoctoral Research Associate is available
in a project to understand the dynamic properties of alloys and composites
under high strain rates. The project is funded by the Australian Research
Council (ARC) Centre of Excellence (CoE) for Design in Light Metals. As the
School is strengthening its research and teaching capabilities in the area of
Mechanics and Materials, this is an opportunity for individuals to expand on
their pre-existing research findings or to start a new research career.
Analytical solution of anisotropic crack or wedges
Hi everyone,
We know that crack or wedge problems are discussed in the porlar coordinate system which centered at the crack tip. Analytical solution (Irwin's) in an expanding form with unkown constants exist for crack or wedges with any open angle in isoptropic materials. The analytical solutions are always employed as enrichments in FEM, MM, XFEM. When the problem moves to anisotropic materials, does the analytcial solution exist?
dynamic analysis of dam-reservoir interaction
Hi all
I am working on sesmic analysis of dam-reservoir interaction and I used ADINA software to analysis the coupled system. I have used potential based fluid elements to define fluid medium. but the coupled dynamic model does not provide the correct answers. I would appricciate if any of you introduce me some one who is familiar with dynamic reservoir-structure modeling in ADINA.

Looking for a postdoctoral position of synthesis and application of nanocomposites or other materials in energy storage
I am looking for a possible opening for a postdoctor concerning the synthesis and utilizations of nanomaterials and metal oxides nanocomposites or any other else in the energy-related materials. I am a PhD candidate now in Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences and I will graduate in June 2012.
During my PhD, my work mainly focuses on the synthesis of nanomaterials and carbon materials and evaluate their electrochemical energy storage performances and explore other useful energy storage devices and tecnologies.
