Exact load to get a right mechanical properties

Submitted by muthanna86 on

Hi everyone,

I am working on a new material, and I am trying to find the exact load ( right pressure load) that I need to apply on the tope surface of the material with fixed boundary conditions in the bottom to find the right mechanical properties like ( modules of elasticity, reduced modules, hardness and toughn). I'm doing the simulation on Abaqus first and compare them with experiments in my laboratory. So, how can I measure the right load that  should apply it? 

 

Thanks,

 

Hibbitt Postdoc Fellowship in Mechanics of Solids at Brown

Submitted by Huajian Gao on

Brown Engineering is recruiting exceptionally talented researchers who have received their Ph.D. degree in engineering, or an engineering-related discipline, after July 2015, or who expect to do so by July 2017, and who aspire to create independent research and pursue careers as leaders of innovation. 

While we will consider applications in all areas of our engineering programs, preference will be given for the 17-18 academic year in the fields of fluids and thermal sciences, and mechanics of solids.
