Ask for Hosford and AH. Cottrell book
hello Dear friends
for doing my phd thesis I need two books titled" mechanic of crystals and textured polycrystals" from W.F. Hosford and " dislocation and plastic flow in crystals" from AH. Cottrell. if anyone has these books please send for me or direct me to related links.
best wishes.
Could you tell me know which criteria if satisfied, the abaqus give this error "one of your elements distorted excessively"?
For test reasons of abaqus work, I have defined my material properties (stress-strain behaviour) up to strains of 15! However, even in this condition some of my elements reaches this strain value and distorted. I want to know which calculation the abaqus software is using to report a distortion error?
Actually can we define our material behaviour in a way that, it would not distorted at all?

When I traveled in China in June, I was once again irritated by the Internet. It was often slow and broken. Many important services are inaccessible, blocked by someone. Why would someone do that?
But I found my Chinese colleagues extremely well interconnected. Everyone has a cell phone. They actually use their cell phones!
