Dear colleagues,
You are cordially invited to submit abstracts for our mini-symposium (MS103) on Multi-scale modeling of microstructure and property evolution in the upcoming EMI conference (June 4-7, 2017) at San Diego. The scope of the mini-symposium is listed below:
One PhD (4 years) and two Postdoc (3 years) vacancies are available in the composites research group at Ghent University in Belgium. The different open positions deal with nondestructive testing methods for composites inspection (vibration/thermography) and fatigue of 3D printed metals. More information can be found on http://www.composites.ugent.be/PhD_job_vacancies_PhD_job_positions_comp….
I am actually using Abaqus' Contour Integral for the determination of stress intensity factors. But I do not know, which theory it is based on. Is it the same like the path-independent determination of J integral? Or is there a difference?
A new postdoctoral fellow position will start on 1 January 2017 at the Technion – Israel Institute of Technology. The position is in the area of computational modeling of reinforced concrete structures under impact loading. The potential candidate should have strong background in nonlinear solid mechanics, finite elements method, and discrete elements method. A prior knowledge in programming using fortran and python is required.
In 1979 Qian Weichang studied the slender toroidal shell systematically and derived a called Qian’s equation, then obtained a series solution with the expression of continued fractions. But Qian did not mention if the series solution can be converted to a well-known special functions. In this paper, a linear transformation has been introduced, which will transfer the equation into a Mathieu equation, whose solution can be expressed in terms of Mathieu functions. This study has revealed a intrinsic relationship between the Qian’s solution and the Mathieu solutions.
The paper gives a systematical introduction on dimensional analysis (DA), and proposes a six-steps on how to use the dimensional analysis, the universality of the DA will be shown by some typical examples, such as, point blast, pipe flow and a small sphere moving through a viscous fluid.
