composite material

Submitted by murugesan_kpm on

hi this s murugesan from chennai.....i am doing final year M.E CAD CAM...i am doing project on 'delamination analysis in glass fiber reinforced composites using ansys'...pls help me, hw to analyse the laminate composite material by using ansys.....i don know ansys efficiently....so kindly tell me detailed step by step procedure for analysing......

specifications of specimen.....

 length = 125 mm; initial crack = 50 mm; laminates = 8 layer; thickness = 4.5 mm; density = 600gmcc.

beginner of MD/DD. what are all the topics that need to be covered?

Submitted by krnk on

Dear iMechanica memebers,

I am a PhD student. I started to work on MD and DD. I know the overview of the  MD and DD,but to have the good basics (statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics, classical mechanics and dislocation dynamics ) knowledge,  i am not getting where to start and where to end these subjects.

could any one tell which are the main topics to be covered in the above subjects, if possible could any one suggest good books related to these subjects. 

could any one please help me in this regard.

 with best regards

mechanics problem Dahl and Crandall

Submitted by kapornith on

Hi All,

I am doing a problem on mechanics and find that the answers are not matching (mine are coming .0085 and .002 inch).I am attaching the question and the answer herewith.

I presume that bending effect is not to be taken into consideration as otherwise the dimensions of the beam would have been furnished.I tried both direct stiffness and virtual work methods and didn't get the required answer.

Can anybody validate the same.I restrain myself using FEA analysis fo it as it would have taken thet bending effect also.

Thanks and Best Regards

M.S thesis topic selection help about fuel cells or etc.

Submitted by vahid2364 on

hello,



 
I am a mechanic eng. M.S student with interest on material science-energy-applied mechanic and the fields like this. 







could anyone tell me what are the recent projects are doning in fuel cell field? are the people doing structural mechanical research on fuel cells and etc?







as projcet going to be done at 2011 what are the newest topics?

Intermediate Mechanics of Materials - 2nd Edition

Submitted by Jim Barber on

Springer has just published the second edition of my book
`Intermediate Mechanics of Materials'. The book covers a selection of topics appropriate to a second course in mechanics of materials. Many books with titles like 'Advanced Mechanics of Materials' are pitched at a much higher level than most introductory courses and this can present a significant barrier to undergraduate students. My intention in this book is to make this transition smoother by discussing simple examples before introducing general principles and by restricting the mathematical level to topics that can be treated using ordinary differential equations rather than PDEs.

Lecture Notes on Composites

Submitted by John R. Willis on

In addition to the notes on stability that I've already posted, I have a set on Composites, which also originated from a lecture course that I gave in Ecole Polytechnique, around 2002. In the hope that they may be of interest at least to someone, here they are! Please do remember that they are just notes and may not be error-free.
