How to mesh sandwich 3D structures
Hello All,
I have some difficulties to mesh the 3D sandwich composite. I want to mesh the outer volume with composite materials with 15 plies and the inner with foam. I don't know how to do so. I've tried to do mesh the outer volume by SOLID46. But I didn't get good mesh due to element coordinate mismatch. Could anybody please suggest me in this regard? I really need your help.
Thank you very much.

Exprimental Data for Wall or Structure under Blast Loading
Dear guys
I've done some numerical research on behavior of concrete wall under blast loading. And know for checking the validity of my results I need some related exprimental data about it. Is there any one who can help me?

Journal Club February 2010: Mechanics of Patterned and Structured Interfaces
Welcome to February 2010 Journal Club! This month, I look forward to a lively discussion on the mechanics of structured and patterned interfaces in which geometry is used to tailor adhesion. Much of the work in this area has been inspired by a variety of animals and insects that have feet covered with small structures (often hierarchical and sub-micrometer in size at the end) that allow them to strongly adhere to a broad range of surfaces. The best known example is the Tokay Gecko (Gekko gecko), which can achieve an adhesion force much greater than its body weight

Commercial use of meshfree methods
can we use mesh-free methods as commercially as finite element methods can be applied.?
I want to develope a software for analysis of 3D frame using meshfree method is it possible?
Gear Box analysis
hi all,
I am doing the FEA on gear box of wind turbine, which is a very complex system.
I want to carry out static and dynamic analysis. I want to consider all the gears in this analysis.
If anyone is having experience in the gearbox analysis, please help me. how to simplify this complex system.
If anyone is having any reference documents please forward to me.
thanks

The Griffith Paper
I wrote these notes on the Griffith (1921) paper for a graduate course on fracture mechanics taught in 2010. The notes were updated when I taught the course in 2014, and were discussed in a new thread titled Inglis (1913) vs. Griffith (1921).
