WANG TILES FOR MODULAR (META)MATERIALS
On June 11, 2021, in the framework of the PRIN2015 METAMATERIALS WEBINARS series, prof. Federico Bosia from Politecnico di Torino has held the webinar
ELASTIC METAMATERIALS FOR MULTISCALE APPLICATIONS, FROM SEISMIC SHIELDS TO NON-DESTRUCTIVE TESTING. The registration of the webinar is available here.
Dear iMechanicians,
We have contributed to the Special Issue organised by the Royal Society on occasion of the centenary of Griffith's seminal paper with a paper revisiting phase field fracture methods and their connection with conventional fracture mechanics theory. I hope that you find it of interest. (https://royalsocietypublishing.org/doi/10.1098/rsta.2021.0021)

It was reported both in experiments and computations using some classical plate theories that wrinkles can appear in a uniaxially stretched rectangular hyperelastic film with clamped-clamped boundaries and can be suppressed upon further tension. Here, based on a recently-available consistent finite-strain plate theory, we investigate this complex instability problem with isola-center bifurcation (the nontrivial solution curve begins and ends at two distinct points on the trivial line) in more depth and present an efficient numerical algorithm.
Hello all
Does abaqus have penalty contact elements? If yes, how to implement it in the input file?
Thank you
