THREE POSTDOCTORAL VACANCIES EXIST IN MECHANICS AND AEROSPACE DESIGN LAB, UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO
The Mechanics and Aerospace Design Laboratory of the University of Toronto has immediate vacancies for postdoctoral applicants with outstanding training in mechanical/aerospace engineering with emphases on engineering design, modelling and analysis. Applicants may select and give their reasons to work on one of the following projects:
Cohesive Element Density
Hello everyone,
Post-doc on lubricated contact (ionic liquids)
The institute of Modelling and Simulation in Mechanics and Materials is looking for a post-doctoral researcher with less than 10 years experience (post-PhD) to work in the area of lubricated contact at the theoretical and computational level. The selected candidate will be supervised by Prof. Evans and Prof. Borodich.
The position is for 12 months and the salary in the vicinity of €35,000.
Please contact stephane dot bordas at gmail dot com for more information.

APS March Meeting: " Extreme Mechanics: Elasticity and Deformation "
Dear Mechanicians,
I would like to draw your attention to the Focus Session **Extreme Mechanics: Elasticity and Deformation** that will take place at the upcoming March Meeting of the American Physical Society in Dallas, TX (March 21-25, 2011).
Each of the sessions will include an invited talk, followed by a series of contributed talks. This year's invited speakers are:
Abaqus, UMAT, Constitutive law, Powder
Dear all,
I have several questions about how to use existing constitutive law of material to code UMAT in Abaqus. I have carried out experiment for several powder materials, including metal, ceramic, polymer powders. The powder aggregate is compacted in a cylindrical die. After the compaction, relationships between axial stress and axial strain, radial stress and axial strain are obtained. The material under such condition is always treated as elastic plastic material.
Tenure-Track Faculty Position in Structural Engineering at Cornell
CORNELL UNIVERSITY School of Civil and Environmental Engineering announces a tenuretrack faculty position in structural engineering starting in Fall 2011.
how can i get the cohesion yield stress in Mohr-coloumb plasticity
Hi my friends,
in Mohr-coloumb plasticity model in abaqus program, there is hardening table,this table includes both cohesion yield stress and absolute plastic strain.
the question is this cohesion yield stress is calculated from the stress -strain diagram, or this cohesion is estimated from the shear test, you know when you draw a relationship between shear stress and normal stress you can get both cohesion and friction angle.
the second question is :- how can i see the model while it is running, i am using abaqus 6.6.
thanks alot.
