IOSO Optimization Software video tutorials
Dear Colleagues,
IOSO video tutorials are available for you, you can watch them on-line...
They describe basic capabilities of IOSO software, solving single-objective and two-objective optimization tasks.

stress - Strain diagram
hi all,
Why the stress values are on Y-axis and strain values on X-axis?
If we interchange the stress on X axis and strain on Y axis , will there be any change or is it possible to change?

FEM for thermoelectric effect (seebeck, peltier, thompson effect)
Hi, I am looking for an opensource FEM tool to solve thermoelectric problems which involve seebeck and peltier effect. Any suggestion?
boundary element metod software question
Hi!
I have written the program in C++ which is based on one of BEM (Method of fictitious loadings) . I know there are a lot of open libraries of functions for programming for example openCV or OpenFEM. I could not find Open Source library for BEM. Please if you know them, give links.
Ansys: W or W/m^2
Hi
I need to apply a heat flux on a surface in ansys in order to simulate a moving heat source. I am using the command SFA,all,,hflux,200 .
would the unit of the value that I enter be W/m^2 of just W? does the W applied be divided by the area that it is applied to?
thanks
Stefano
Postdoctoral Fellowship for Research into the Mechanics of Magnesium Alloys
A postdoctoral fellow is sought to study the mechanics of magnesium alloys at the University of Waterloo, Canada, under the guidance of Dr. Worswick and Dr. Gracie. The qualified applicant will have a proven background in computational mechanics, substantiated by publications in international journals. Preference will be given to candidates with experience coding large deformation plasticity models, coding the finite element method and with using fracture mechanics. In addition, experience with high strain rate testing of materials is desirable.
Localization of Inelastic Deformation 2010
Dear colleagues,
I would like to bring to your attention the advanced course on Modeling of localized inelastic deformation that will be taught by Milan Jirasek in Prague, Czech Republic on 13-17 September 2010.
More detailed information on the course is posted at http://mech.fsv.cvut.cz/~milan/course2010.html. We are looking forward to seeing you in Prague!
Wrong pore pressure and effective stress state in ABAQUS
Hey.
I want to model an anchored sheet pile wall placed in a completly saturated clay material, where
the excavation steps on the left side of the wall have to be taken into account.
I am using the keyword in ABAQUS "*Model change, Remove" to remove my elements, so I can
simulate the excavation steps. Unfortunately, my pore pressures seem stranges in the
model when I am using this keyword.
