A new Method for Detection of Degradation in Die-Attach Materials by In-Situ-Health Monitoring of Thermal Properties
The application of electronic products is established in many fields of everyday life, for example in automotive industry, medical or communication technology. This leads to the necessity of investigation of safety and reliability of such components. During lifetime testing of the electronic component different loads and mechanisms can lead to degradation and failure. For die attach materials these failures can be cohesive or adhesive in their nature.

Nanotube geometry
Hi folks! I deal with buckling nanostructures, contact problem of nanostructures. And i have a problem with geometry construction of nanotube with arbitrary (n, m) chirality. Can any one write the algorithm for building nanotube geometry in 3d space(xyz-Cartesian coordinate system). Many thanks!

Hi, everyone!
Could you please tell me how can I use / calculate the element length when writting VUMAT for ABAQUS?
Thank you!
Frequency response analysis for solid-liquid system with ABAQUS
Hello ABAQUS users!
Do you know how to simulate the resonant frequency for a diaphragm with a liquid medium below as in the figure with ABAQUS ?
