The STFC Hartree Centre (in Warrington, UK - located between Manchester & Liverpool) is running 4 high performance computing summer schools from June to July 2016. They are primarily aimed at PhD students and postdoctoral researchers, but are also open to academics and industry at no extra cost. The tuition fees are subsidised by STFC and each week only costs £150. There is a 1 week school on each of the following topics:
Our Group of High Performance Materials in Enviormental & Civil Engineering Department at Michigan State University has an openings for PhD positions to work on Multiscale Modeling of Soft Materials starting Fall 2016.
Hello......
I have a small doubt. It may feel silly, but please reply..
Suppose I have a pendulum and it is impacting onto a structure. The mass of pendulum is 'm' and the intiial velocity is 'v'. The condition is that the KE at the time of impact should be 'E'. E= 0.5*m*v2 .
Now i change the mass of the pendulum to m1 correspondingly velocity should be changed to v1 so that E1=E.
Now i need to compare the force transmitted to the structure. F = ma.

Cyclic Plasticity of Additively Manufactured (AM) Metals: Experimental Investigation & Constitutive Modelling
Dear IMECE Attendees:
The Applied Mechanics Executive Committee (AMD-EC) is pleased to announce the 2016 IMECE student travel award and best paper competition.
Hi
I want to simulate experimental result of a CFRP [45/0/-45/90]s single lap joint in ABAQUS.
I have given geometry, properties & graphical result in the uploaded images.
Yellow color plate in the joint geometry is the E-Glass end tabs to grab both the ends
of the joint in the hydraulic grips. The loading(shear) is carried out at 0.5mm/min.
Thichness of each ply is 0.12mm; so thickness(T) of one CFRP plate is 0.12*8 = 0.96mm.
Thickness of adhesive layer is 0.15mm.
Overlap length(L) is 10mm.
