It gives me great pleasure to announce the outcome of the 2014 competition for the Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty. This award is given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. The selection committee consisted of: K. Ravi-chandar (UT Austin), Huajian Gao (Brown University), Kaushik Bhattacharya (Caltech), Roger Fosdick (Minnesota University), and Yonggang Huang (Northwestern University).
According to the Swedish Plant Inspectorate the major part of all reported fracture related failures in Sweden are due to stress corrosion. I guess it is more or less a reality everywhere. The association with accidents is probably because it comes without warning and usually at surprisingly low loads. Just a mm sized spot of decomposing grease is enough to create a locally extremely acid environment. In an otherwise friendly environment this often not even considered as a possibility by the designer.

Description
The turbocharger efficiency has a direct effect on the fuel efficiency of the engine. However in many turbocharger turbine applications it is becoming increasingly difficult to improve the turbine efficiency with conventional design methods.
I need to extract the consistent mass matrix of a solid element, the thing is every time I use *MATRIX GENNERATE it gave me the lumped mass matrix which is a reduced version of the consistent mass matrix. However, if I use a beam element, I just need to print out next to *Beam Section, Lumped = NO to give me the consistent mass matrix but only this option is applicable for beam element which will not be helpful model cause I need a solid element.
In summary, I just need to know how to get the consistent mass matrix of a solid element and not the lumped one.
