Simultaneous Recovery of Transverse Stresses at all Points in a Plate

Submitted by rbatra on Tue, 10/19/2021 - 14:40

We address the challenging issue of simultaneously finding transverse shear and normal stresses at all points in a plate from a priori known values of the in-plane stresses at plate’s interior points. The principle of virtual work is employed to equate the work done by the transverse stresses to the difference between the work done by the external forces (applied surface tractions and body forces) and that by the in-plane stresses.

PhD vacancy (4 years) on computational mechanics of thick adhesive joints in large wind turbine blades

Finite Element Method

mechanics

computational mechanics

Over the last years, UGent-MMS has developed the stand-alone BladeMesher software for generating finite element models of large wind turbine blades. The software reads in the material data and airfoil data of the wind turbine blade, and automatically constructs the geometry and finite element mesh for the blade. In a next step, the nodal and element information of the finite element mesh is written out to an input file for a commercial finite element solver (Abaqus in this case).

Postdoctoral position in data-driven multiscale modeling

Submitted by Krishna Garikipati on Wed, 10/13/2021 - 20:50

job

The Computational Physics Group at the University of Michigan has an opening for a

postdoctoral researcher in data-driven multiscale modeling. This position can be available as

early as January 1, 2021. Research in the Computational Physics Group is focused on

developing data-driven, machine learning and some artificial intelligence approaches that

interact with a range of computational methods for problems in materials physics, biophysics

and in engineering more broadly.
