Need to know information about Hermite cubics & shape function
I am doing my research in nonlinear vibration of beams. In that research, I have to derive the shape function for different end conditions of the beam. Regarding this,I need some ideas. Are there books I can reference?
Regarding my research work, I need to know about hermite cubics in Fem. Can any one suggest a book regarding this?

Can anyone help me to get the following book?
Hi ,
I am doing phd in nonlinear vibration. Regarding my thesis, I want to refer the following book
"Analytical and numerical methods for vibration analysis" by "Jong-Shyong"
Since the cost of this book is very costly, I am not able to afford this book. I am ready to buy the used copy of this book also.
Can anyone have used copy of this book?
If anyone have, plz provide the photocopy of that book.
If anyone knows, free download copy of the book, plz let me know

Concrete compression test - Error
Hello everyone,
I have modeled compression test on concrete cube in Abaqus/Explicit. For concrete I have used Concrete damaged plasticity model. I have assigned displacement as BC (Smooth amplitude) in Reference Point at the top of the cube, and I have coupled RP with the top of the cube. For concrete cube I have used C3D8R elements.
For history output I have requested Reaction force in RP and energies for whole model.
But job won't finish. I get an error:
Help needed... What is the best method to model the constraints between end plate and a pipe and connect it to a loading point ?
Hi all,
I'm modelling a pipe in ABAQUS subjected to internal pressure as step one then an eccentric tension load is applied as step two. I'm trying to find the best method in connecting the end plate with the pipe and the reference point of loading with the end plate. using kinematic coupling gives different stress distribution on the pipe than using tie constraint. Any idea ?
