Hi ,
I want to learn about micropolar linear elastic theory. Could anyone pls guide me which book/article/journal is best suited for a beginner in this area. I have quiet good background in basic solid mechanics, FEM and Dynamics.
Thanks in advance
This recent article presents an improved methodology to calculate in-situ Young's moduli of the constitutive layers in a multilayer systems (e.g. thin films, SOFCs, TBCs etc.)

We are pre-screening candidates for an opening for technical services engineer at ANSYS Inc. in Houston, TX.
The job entails providing advanced technical guidance on various aspects of computational Structural Mechanics to clients in industry and academia.
A postdoctoral fellowship is available at Paris Institute of Technology (ParisTech) to work on generalized continua modeling.
I am trying to write my own code for geometrically nonlinear analysis of mixed structures (cables, trusses, beams...). I would like to have it as general as possible ie. applicable also to 2D and 3D solids. I am trying to follow nonincremental Newton Raphson procedure from Ansys theory manual, but my computation are not converging.. Can I kindly ask you for advice ?
Here is my flow:
=== Linear analysis ===
(1) inv Kt *F = du
resluts are correct comparing to Ansys
=== Nonlinear analysis ===
while (F_ext - F_int) < 1e-3
(2) u = u +du
Experiment.com is a crowdfunding site for research (a Kickstarter for science!).
Open to all, a target amount for a project is set, and funds are raised through small individual donations. The success is based on how many people like your idea. It's kind of a fun/alternative idea to traditional grant sources! If you have an interesting idea, I recommend it.
