Latest version of Leading Design Suite for Turbomachinery offers significant new functionality and modules to enable a faster, more effective design process for all engineers, especially for Multi-objective/Multi-disciplinary optimization.
Professor Mory Gharib, of California Institute of Technology will receive the Society of Engineering Science G.I. Taylor medal next year. The prize is awarded for outstanding research contributions in either theoretical or experimental Fluid Mechanics or both.
With a growing interest in soft materials, stability and bifurcation analysis is re-emerging to be a critical topic for mechanicians. There are some excellent books out there but most tend to focus on finite dimensional systems rather than (continuous) infinite dimensional systems which are of most interest to mechanicians. In general, much of the modern developments on this topic are scattered across journal papers and perhaps there are not too many pedagogical resources for beginners.
The University of Central Florida (UCF) announces multiple tenured / tenure-track faculty positions at all ranks to be filled by the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering (MAE) in the College of Engineering and Computer Science (CECS). This hiring program is part of a comprehensive growth plan to significantly increase the faculty size. Candidates with backgrounds in any area of mechanical or aerospace engineering or related disciplines will be considered. Exceptionally well-qualified candidates will be considered for Provost Professor designation.
Dear members,
I'm strugling with implementing the MMA code (Svanberg) in the 88 line code with Heaviside projection method.
The sensitivity and density filter both work correctly, but when ft == 3 (Heaviside) my volfrac goes to 1 (when it's supposed to be 0.5 or something else)
Can somebody help me with this?
I just paste the code here (without the MMA part, mmasub & subsolv, because its too long and I have not changed anything different than the original of Svanberg)
