Embedded Elliptical Crack Modeling Problem

Submitted by Sadanand Renapurkar on

I am  modeling an  embedded elliptical crack in finite solid in ANSYS 10.0.For mode-II and III calculation of energy release rate, I am not able to transform the forces in the local coordinate system as required in case of elliptical cracks.The loading is perpendicular to crack.

Please help me with the required Force Tranformations. In case of elliptical cracks forces obtained from ANSYS are in global coordinate system as Fx,Fyand Fz.I need to transform Fy and Fz in local coordinate system.

GROWTH of NANOTUBE

Submitted by utpal on

Hi ,

              I have read your post and came to know that you are using
DL_POLY for nano simulation. I am beginners in the field of MD. I am
using DL_POLY_3. Can you please tell me that is it possible to simulate
the GROWTH of NANOTUBE using DL_POLY?

I  am waiting for your reply

thanks and regards

It's heaven in here..! can anybody a chapter of a book online?

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on

Hi everyone:

I just joined. found you by chance..you should advertise you know..! I do some modeling of tissue deofrmation and diffusion and stuff. I need to find a chapter of the book "Porous Media: Theory, Experiments and Numerical Application". does anybody have an electronic copy of it or know a free resource where I can find it?

Thank you very much,

Need help about nanocomposite materials

Submitted by RaminBabaei on

I am Ramin Aghababaei , new PhD student at Mechanical Department of National University of Singapore. My thesis is about finite element modelling of nanocomposites.  Because I am at the first way of my research, I want to know more about my research topic  and know exactly why I want to do  or what is the problem and how can I solve it?   So I have some questions and your experience is invaluable for me in this way. 1-what are the important parameters in the modelling of nanostructures which must be considered?

Kindle - The Future of Ink, part 2

Submitted by Michael H. Suo on

A year ago in my first post, The Future of Ink, I explored e-ink technology and the e-book concept when the potential was still largely unseen. But since then, the industry has completely transformed, and the prospect of the e-book is beginning to be realized.

Hello everyone!

Submitted by Zhiqiang Gong on

I am happy to find this place for mechanicians. I hope I can make some friends and learn something here.

I am a PhD candidate in Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, and I will get my degree in a few months. Is there anyone from BUAA in this place?
