Recipe for catastrophe
Last year we published a paper titled “Electromechanical Catastrophe”. I am planning to give a lecture on this topic in my course on Advanced Elasticity. The mathematics of catastrophe is old, but can be used more widely.
First International Conference on Materials, Mimicking, Manufacturing from and for Bio Applications
Dear Friends and Colleagues, I am co-organizing a mini-symposium entitled Mechanics of bio-inspired architected materials and interfaces within the “First International Conference on Materials, Mimicking, Manufacturing from and for Bio Applications” (http://biomm.org) with Gilles Lubineau (KAUST) and Pablo D. Zavattieri (Purdue University).
abaqus sloshing
I try to model and simulate the half-full water tanker and then evaluated sloshing frequency in ABAQUS .
I have many questions. Can every one help me?
1-i have to aoustic to evaluated sloshing frequnce ?
2-Is there another way to do it in abaqus?
Thanks for your help
Modelling deformation and fracture of Gilsocarbon graphite subject to service environments
Dear all,
Speech of Acceptance of the 2017 Timoshenko Medal by Viggo Tvergaard
Mechanics in Denmark
Applied Mechanics Division Banquet, Tuesday, 7 November 2017
It is a great honor for me to receive the Timoshenko Medal. In particular I am very impressed when I look at the names of those who got it before me. Many thanks to those who have nominated me, and to those who have selected me for this honor.
FEA of the Tibial Post of a Knee Prosthesis
Tibial post failure has been reported in several retrieval studies for knee surgeries using posterior-stabilized (PS) prostheses. Fractures of the tibial post are considered to be caused by high stress-induced destruction (bending and tensile forces). The design of polyethylene inserts requires a certain level of plastic deformation to take place without the risk of deformation. The design of the tibial post varies markedly among manufacturers.
8th International Conference on Engineering Failure Analysis (ICEFA2018): Call for abstracts
Present your research at the 8th International Conference on Engineering Failure Analysis, 8-11 July 2018, Budapest, Hungary. Oral and poster presentations are invited on the conference topics by 8 December 2017.
The ICEFA2018 conference will bring together world-class researchers, users and specialists involved in all aspects of failure analysis and prevention from the fields of mechanical, manufacturing, aeronautical, civil, chemical, corrosion and design engineering.
Post Doc or PhD position open in design of shape memory composite
A PhD position or a Post-Doc position, depending on the candidate skills are available in the Department of Sciences and Methods fo Engineering at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy. The research project is in the smart composite materials design. The candidate will have to design and optimize a composite structure with embedded SMA for morphing application. Candidates should have possibly a strong background in mechanics, finite elements simulations and smart materials.
