ESPI interferometer with radial sensibility

Submitted by jrpmichel on

hi all.

 

some time ago. i was measured the strees intesity factor (SIF) means electronic speckle pattern interferometry. i remeber used two equationes (in polar system) to compute by laest square method the KI and KII factors from measured displacement in the x and y directions. 

my question is: do you find some utility or advanage develop a interferometer with radial sensibility?, i appraise your opinion or any suggestion

thanks

About ABAQUS input file

Submitted by adarshchatra on

Hi, i am adarsh, graduate student in  geotechinical engg

I am new to abaqus.

I have to  use UMAT written in fortran  for my projec.

I need to know or anybody having documentation about  what is inutfile, UMAT, SDVINI (Related to geoechnical engg ) e.t.c so that i can learn regarding the same.

Postdoctoral Position in Computational Mechanics

Submitted by John E. Dolbow on

A postdoctoral fellowship is available in the Duke Computational Mechanics Laboratory, beginning in September of 2010 (with flexibility on timing).  Funding for the fellowship concerns research in the simulation of dynamic fracture of polycarbonate.  The ideal candidate will have experience in some combination of the following areas (in no particular order of importance):

anyone using mupad & matlab

Submitted by 雪魄梅魂 on

Hi all!

 
I'm using Matlab and mupad  in my research .I have managed to plot a few curves using mupad, a powerful symbol computation soft. Since it is theory solution, I want to add the experimental curves to compare the goodness.But i don't how to make the two softwares work cooperated. 

Any suggestions will be appreciate.

Some problems in the paper---- Haversian cortical bone model with many radial microcraks: An elastic analytic solution.

Submitted by WANGXU on

Dear everyone,

Recently I have read the paper--Haversian cortical bone model with many radial microcraks: An elastic analytic solution. In this paper, I can't understand the dislocations Burgers vectors (bt and bn), the following words and the corresponding expressions(6a) and (6b). The paper is attached.   

Now, if it is assumed that bt and bn are continually distributed

over the microcracks, the shear and normal stresses could be

formulated as (6a) and (6b).

 Waiting for your help. Thanks.
