Discussion of fracture paper #15 - Designing for crack arrest
Everyone loves an elegant engineering solution. It is particularly true when the alternatives are terrifying. In the paper:
”Brittle crack propagation/arrest behaviour in steel plate – Part I: Model formulation” by Kazuki Shibanuma, Fuminori Yanagimoto, Tetsuya Namegawa, Katsuyuki Suzuki, Shuji Aihara in Engineering Fracture Mechanics, 162 (2016) 324-340.

TB,elastic
Hi friends;
I am doing modal analysis for functionally graded material in APDL ANSYS. equation of material properties has three independent variables,(x,y,z), and element type is solid186. I used from function tool for loading equation then saved it as table, hereinafter I used from TB
command:
TB,elastic,1,,,,,%hh%
hh is table name.
warning message was created: "the function or table specification hh for material number 0 is currently allowed for joint element material specification. The TB command is ignored.
Linear equation
These notes are a part of the notes on linear algebra.
REMINDER: (Due Dec 5th) Call for Nominations for the Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty
It is my pleasure to solicit nominations for the "Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty". This award, launched in 2012, is given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. While interdisciplinary work that bridges mechanics with physics, chemistry, biology and other disciplines is encouraged, the ideal awardee will demonstrate clear inspiration from mechanics in his/her research.

Quantitative phase-field crystal modeling of solid-liquid interfaces for FCC metals
This work deals with the quantification and application of the modified two-mode phase-field crystal model (M2PFC; Asadi and Asle Zaeem, 2015) for face-centered cubic (FCC) metals at their melting point. The connection of M2PFC model to the classical density functional theory is explained in this article. M2PFC model in its dimensionless form contains three parameters (two independent and one dependent) which are determined using an iterative procedure based on the molecular dynamics and experimental data.
