i am doing my research project on stability analysis of a cantilever rotating shaft-disk systems. i need to study  some basic theory about this. please suggest me  some books or publications. my email id is balaji.modepalli [at] gmail.com

how can i overcome divergent problem in abaqus standard

Submitted by Gamal on

hi my friends,

i am using abaqus standard Mohr-Coloumb plasticity to model uniaxial compression test, so i have sample and (upper and lower platen) to represent the compression machine , i apply the load through the movement of the upper platen, the stress strain diagram of my material is strain softening.

Microcanonical Entropy and Mesoscale Dislocation Mechanics and Plasticity

Submitted by Amit Acharya on

(Journal of Elasticity, Carlson memorial Volume)

A methodology is devised to utilize the statistical mechanical entropy of an isolated, constrained atomistic system to define the dissipative driving-force and energetic fields in continuum thermomechanics. A thermodynamic model of dislocation mechanics is discussed. One outcome is a definition for the mesoscale back-stress tensor and the symmetric, polar dislocation density-dependent, Cauchy stress tensor from atomistic ingredients.

IOSO Multilevel Robust Design Optimization Methodology

Submitted by IOSOnier on

Dear Colleagues,

We would like to share our thoughts about our approach to Robust Design Optimization and our way how we sufficiently increase the speed of solution of RDO problems in full stochastic statement with the involvement of probability objectives and adaptive surrogate model construction tools.

We will present this theory during our joint Webinar with Ansys: The link to on-line Webinar registration…

Fatigue Crack Growth Under Spectrum(Random) loading

Submitted by uni_students2009 on

Dear all Researchers, 

 I am writing regarding for the first time about the UAA(Unified analytical aspect) on Fatigue crack growth. The idea of this technique is this question : too many fatigue life prediction relations but still those are not perfect. on the other hand, new math ways still have not been the classical fracture mechanics. I am looking for some comments as response to this concern. Clearly, how we upgrade fracture mechanics theory using atomistic development in modeling fatigue propagation?

 Let us talk about this.

Abaqus, UMAT, Constitutive law, Powder

Submitted by leo20002000 on

Dear all,

 

I have several questions about how to use existing constitutive law of material to code UMAT in Abaqus. I have carried out experiment for several powder materials, including metal, ceramic, polymer powders. The powder aggregate is compacted in a cylindrical die. After the compaction, relationships between axial stress and axial strain, radial stress and axial strain are obtained. The material under such condition is always treated as elastic plastic material.

Elastoplastic deformation of Grey cast iron

Submitted by YangTan on

Hello.all!

Is anyone doing the work on the modeling of  constitutive equation of Grey cast iron in large deformation?

Recently i read  Holm Altonbach's paper "on the Elastoplastic deformation of Grey cast iron" ,  i wonder how to convert the relation (stress-strain) into (stress-hardening parameter). I'm also not sure if the constitutive model can be used in large defomation simulation. 

 thanks in advance!

Y.T.
