Could anyone help me to define transverse mechanical properties of unidirectional fiber composite in ABAQUS/CAE?
Hello everyone,
I want to model a unidirectional fiber composite using ABAQUS/CAE. The fiber has transverse mechanical properties. I used the engineering constants to define the mechanical properties of fiber.
Could anyone help me in how to define transverse mechanical properties in ABAQUS?
Thanks in advance

Invitation to Hybrid Films to Human Skin: The Relationship between Structure, Processing and Function
Dear All,
I would like to invite fellow bloggers in Singapore to a Singapore University of Technology and Design (SUTD) Engineering Product Development (EPD) Lecture Series talk titled:
Hybrid Films to Human Skin: The Relationship between Structure, Processing and Function
presented by Professor Reinhold H. Dauskardt (Stanford University), on Tue, 12 July 2016, 3:00pm – 4:00pm Singapore Time, SUTD Lecture Theatre 1 (1.102).
For more information, please refer to the attached flyer.
Are there any numuerical or analytic formula for the estimation of dislocation density?
1. There are several experimental microscopy techniques for the calculation of dislocation density; but are there any reliable numerical ones, as well ? like those, which least include experimental parameters, except for some initial ones, like the initial density of dislocation, such as Reid's formula [1].
2. as a result of dislocation accumulation after deformation, slip bands form. are there any numerical techniques for slip band density estimation?

Looking for a postdoc position
Dear Professor,
I am Fan Xie, a PhD in solid mechanics, Beihang University.
I am looking for a postdoctoral position in computational mechanics (MDs, FEM etc.) now. I have published 9 journal papers and 2 conference papers. I deeply understand the modeling of nano materials and nanocomposites (fiber reinforced, IPCs or bicontinuous composites) based on either Molecular Dynamics simulation (MDs) or FEM. And I am a hard working person as a Chinese student who is crazy about science.
Multi-scale modeling of plastic deformations in nano-scale materials; Transition to plastic limit
Despite the controversial debates concerning a unified theory, the continuum plasticity has evolved during the last few decades and an uncountable number of articles has been published on the subject. The proposal of Lee to decompose the deformation gradient, F, into elastic part Fe and plastic part Fp (i.e. F=FeFp) combined with the principle of maximum plastic dissipation is used in many publications to formulate the ensuing developments.
