Hello,
I'm joining 1D beam element to 3D solid elements using a transformation between the 6 dofs of the single node of the beam element, u = [u1, ..., u6], and 3n dofs of n nodes of the solid elements, U = [U1, ..., U3n], at the joint face using a linear transformation, S (6X3n), that I've derived from beam theory, which is essentially the continuity condition. Therefore:
u = S*U
The December Issue of JDBM is now available, completing the first year of this new journal sponsored by the Society for Experimental Mechanics. Springer is making all papers freely available for the first two years. http://link.springer.com/journal/volumesAndIssues/40870
Attatched are the slides for a course on engineering thermodynamics. Before coming to class, please watch this tutorial on psychrometry.
A postdoctoral research fellow is sought to join the Laboratory for Nonequilibrium Phenomena (neplab.net) under the direction of Prof. Justin W. Wilkerson at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA).
Applied Mechanics Division Banquet, Houston, 17 November 2015.
Howdy! I am your after-dinner entertainment!
These slides are used in a course on thermodynamics.
<p>What is the difference between SN and EN curves ? Where is stress based approach and strain based approach used in lifing ?</p>
