Can anyone suggest a way to reduce the mesh size within Abaqus using the odb(database) file ?
Midpoint and double step algorithms are interesting implicit algorithms for integrating the governing equations in plastic regime. Developing such algorithms for large deformation is complex due to the various configurations that have to be considered. In this paper a new algorithm is proposed for the integration of governig equations in large deformation plasticity which is based on midpoint rule. The time continuous model as well as algorithmic setup are discussed in details.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the Institut Lumière Matière of the University of Lyon in France to simulate by MD in controlled geometries the interactions between dislocations and general "dirty" grain boundaries. This work is part of an EU project on fatigue deformation involving France, Germany and Belgium.

In this paper we formulate a geometric theory of nonlinear thermoelasticity that can be used to calculate the time evolution of the temperature and thermal stress fields in a nonlinear elastic body. In particular, this formulation can be used to calculate residual thermal stresses. In this theory the material manifold (natural stress-free configuration of the body) is a Riemannian manifold with a temperature-dependent metric. Evolution of the geometry of the material manifold is governed by a generalized heat equation.
Dear Colleagues,
We cordially invite you to participate and present your excellent works at our symposium titled “Integration of Crystal Plasticity into Modeling and Simulations of Materials across Different Length and Time Scales” (Symposium code: MS1010, link: http://13.usnccm.org/MS1009) at 13th US National Congress on Computational Mechanics. The congress will be held from July 26th to July 30th 2015 in San Diego, California, USA.
