research

Many people here are interested in the behaviours of interfaces.

I am interested in having a list of the cohesive energy for interfaces between different materials, such as polymer/ceramics, polymer/metals, polymer/polymer, metals/ceramics, biological interfaces, carbon nanotube/polymer matrix, etc.

So, what is the magnitude of the cohesive energy per unit area of the interface you are studying?
 

Hi,

I am a PhD student and I have just started to work on FEMLAB and was just wondering if someone could help me with FEMLAB. I am using at the moment the PDE modes-Weak forms to solve flow over topography using the lubrication equation. I have implemented the lubrication equations into the subsomain settings and set the boundary conditions  but i do get wrong results. Could you please advice where i might have done wrong.

Any suggestions will be really appreciated.

Many thanks

Catherine

Hello, I'm working in my doctoral thesis. I work in drying cracks in soils. At the moment I'm starting to implement my code but I want to start with simplest case.

My problem is high nonlinear and for this reason I need to solve for example flow in unsaturated porous media. Are there any code in matlab to solve nonlinear problems in 1D ? for flow in porouos media or for heat transmition it could be useful for me.

Thank you very much.

Hello every body 

I am a novice (new one) on this web site and I just began, I am preparing my master on composites and I think that you have more informations than me on this subject my problem is that Iam in the coparative step between my results and the others.

my work is on the crack of composites mode II (sliding mode) I'm modelizing that phenomen with finit element to find the enegy of sustitution the problem is that I have not found any results by web and unfotunatly we have not books on this subject in my university.

hi, everybody

i am going to simulate crack propagate by ABAQUS, but i haven't used ABAQUS before.
now i have two problems:
 1) can abaqus calculate the velocity of crack advancing?

 2)FGM(functionally graded materials ). material property varies at
 different position,such as density ,modulus, possion ration. can
 abaqus deal with this problem by umat .

thanks.
