Hello everyone,
I've proposed a new Stack Exchange site called "Theoretical and Applied Mechanics" for people intersted in mechaics related issues. The current link is http://area51.stackexchange.com/proposals/67726/theoretical-and-applied-mechanics?referrer=73mdEQ3M_DdhwHImwznaBQ2
For the proposal to be accepted to go to the next stage the site will need the following:
- 60 people to follow the site
Hello,
I am working on my master's thesis. I have to find best fitting hyperelastic material model for simple shear test.
My task is to find most proper material model which will fit my laboratory test data. I have conducted the "single lap test" on bricks, using polymer PS.
The Why? - Why do we need 3D material deformation measurement?
Hi all,
I want to write a matlab based code that will be able to describe material behaviour under uniaxial loading. So what I am interested in is the plasticity of a material. I want the code to be able to represent material behaviour after yielding and also cyclic loading.
Haythornthwaite Foundation and the Applied Mechanics Division - 2013 Research Initiation Grant Awards
It gives me great pleasure to announce the outcome of the 2013 competition for the Eshelby Mechanics Award for Young Faculty. This award is given annually to rapidly emerging junior faculty who exemplify the creative use and development of mechanics. The intent of the award is to promote the field of mechanics, especially among young researchers. The selection committee consisted of: K. Ravi-chandar (UT Austin), Huajian Gao (Brown University), Kaushik Bhattacharya (Caltech), Roger Fosdick (Minnesota University), and Yonggang Huang (Northwestern University).
hi every body:
What's your idea? The virtual displacement is special case of hamilton's principle or the hamilton's principle come from virtual displacement? Or, Which is older?
