Mechanics of Materials: Textbook Recommendation
I will be teaching a sophomore level class mechanics of materials class. The class will cover mechanics of basic strength of materials (e.g. beams, pressure vessels), but I also want to teach basic elements of failure mechanics (fracture, fatigue, plasticity, and wear.) I'm looking for a recommendation of an undergrad mechanics textbook that covers the fracture, fatigue, plasticity, and wear. The students will have had a statics and mechanics class and their textbook already covers strength of materials. Thanks.
Problems with cohesive zone. Does it make sence to use them here?

Hey I've got a beam and between two different materials i'm thinking to
put a cohesive zone with "weaker" material properties. Does it make
sense to use cohesive zone models?
My model is looking like this now. But I don't know what's wrong. It
seems taht the whole force/displacement is lost in the cohesive zone.
If somebody can help that would be very nice

Hi all,
I exercised "Prob37: FSI analysis of a simplified turbine using a sliding mesh" ADINA tutorial. I got an error message and the program stopped solving.
The error message:
ERROR CODE ADF2075
"-R option cannot be used for adaptive-mesh or sliding mesh. You can use -m, -M options."
What are the -R,-m, -M options? How can i solve this problem?
Looking for a Phd. position in Computational Solid Mechanics and Materials.
I am a final year Master of Engineering student at Materials Engineering Department, Indian Institute of Science. I have done my Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engg. from Bengal Engineering and Science University, West Bengal, India. Currently I am working on my ME project "Simulation and Validation of Roll-Separating force and Limiting Reduction in Cold Rolling", under Prof Vikram Jayaram, Materials Engg Dept. and Prof S.K.Biswas, Mechanical Engg. Dept, IISc., Bangalore. After completion (June, 2011) of my ME, I want to do Phd.
Im looking for a PhD Position in the area of molecular simulations
My name is Mario Pinto. I have a bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering (2006) and a masters degree in Computational Science (2008). Since August 2008, I have been working at Computational Research Labs, Pune, India in the Computational Materials Group. My work mostly involves the use of MD, and I use LAMMPS for all simulations.
I am looking for a PhD position in the area of molecular simulations, applied to studystructure / properties /
Modeling Fracture and Failure with Abaqus lecture notes
Hi All,
I am working on modelling the fracture failures using ABAQUS. I am searching for support where I can start on my own by following some notes.
If anyone has the notes related to this course conducted by Simulia please help me in getting that for me.

hi i am ganesh
currently we are doing final year project about process modelling of turning operation in ansys lsdyna.we are facing difficulty in finding out the constants required for the johnson cook material model.chip formation and failure criteria is still a major problem.so i kindly request you to give suggestion and materials to solve this problem.
