Need help in orthogonal machining
Hello All,
I am Ganesh, trying to simulate 2D othogonal machining. But in simulation, the chip is not seperating from the rake face of the tool.
can any body tell me how to resolve this problem.
Thank you in advance.

Call for Papers: Shape Modeling International 2014 (Deadline July 7, 2014)
Symposium on Geomaterials: Poromechanics and Failure at EMI International Conference, Hong Kong January 7-9,2015
Dear Colleagues,
We are currently organizing a Symposium on Geomaterials: Poromechanics and Failure, for the upcoming EMI International Conference "Mechanics for Civil Engineers Against Natural Hazards" in Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Hong Kong, from January 7th to 9th, 2015.
We would like to invite submission for abstracts on modeling, characterization, and experimental studies on geomaterials for disaster prevention (landslides, earthquake) and for problems related to new energy applications (e.g. fracking, induced seismic events).
Jan Achenbach and John Hutchinson will receive the 2014 Monie A. Ferst Award
Here is a description of the award and past winners.

How to put concrete in a brb(Buckling restrained brace) in Abaqus?
hi every body
I model a brb(Buckling restrained brace) in Abaqus but my question is How to put concrete in a brb or How do I define the concrete inside the brb that work together?
thanks
