How to give a relation in DEFORM 3D??
How can I give an inter-object relation between two plastic workpieces which one of them is inside the other one at DEFORM 3D V6.1??
The workpieces are being twist and extrusion at a time.
How to call UEXTERNALDB subroutine
Hi, I'm new user of ABAQUS. I'm trying to develop a model that involve one further output variable (the degree of cure of a polymer). I thought to use the subroutine UEXTERNALDB to write and read from an external file the array containing the values of this output variable in each element. But I couldn’t find out how to call this subroutine in the .inp file. Does anyone have any suggestion for my problem?
Thank you
Active stretching shock wave as reactive engine
The drivers for move of the rockets are designed in form that or the other version of the Laval nozzle.The reactive force of the traction which is created by such driver can essentially be increased if in the outer section of nozzle is placed an active shock wave of stretching (depression): then the reactive force of the traction becomes

Ph.D. position in computational solid mechanics
A PhD position is available in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Science at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. The research project is on the multiscale modeling of the stress corrosion cracking. Candidates should have a strong background in continuum mechanics, finite elements and constitutive modeling. Programming experience in Fortran or C++ is required for this position. The starting date for this position is January 2017.
Opening for two new Ph.D. students in the Computational Mechanics group, The University of Iowa.
The Computational Mechanics group at The University of Iowa, led by Professor S. Rahman, is looking for two new Ph.D. students, who are capable of and interested in performing high-quality research on isogeometric methods and uncertainty quantification. The research, supported by U.S. National Science Foundation, requires building a solid mathematical foundation, devising efficient numerical algorithms, and developing practical computational tools, all associated with stochastic isogeometric analysis of complex materials and structures. A substantial background in solid mechanics with coding experience in finite-element or similar methods is a must; exposures to uncertainty quantification and probabilistic methods are highly desirable.
Scouting for Tenure-Track positions at IMT Lucca
Dear All,
I am pleased to inform you that an International Scouting procedure for Tenure-Track faculty positions is now open at IMT Lucca.
The IMT School is collecting expressions of interest from exceptional candidates of all ranks in the following areas:
· Economics, Management and Data Science
· Computer Science and Systems Engineering
· Neurosciences
· Cultural Heritage
The second area includes computational mechanics.
XFEM crack under compression.
Hi all,
I am doing crack modelling (XFEM) under moving compression and traction loading in Abaqus but I get warning regarding the crack under compression load as follows:
"THE LOADING CONDITION MIGHT MAKE MAIN CRACK UNDER COMPRESSION AT NSET "X" THE CRACK PROPAGATION DIRECTION CANNOT BE PREDICTED. A VALUE OF ZERO IS PROVIDED FOR IT."
Anyone facing the same issue?
Kind regards,
Omid
