Micro-sphere Model
Hi all,
I am currently working on micro-sphere model like the one used by Miehe, Ihlemann and Pawleski. I wonder if someone know a FEM code who use this type of model.
Thanks a lot

how to model a 3-D crack in ansys
i want to create a crack in a cantilever beam, but i m new in this field. please tell me how to model a crack in beam when beam is meshed using 1) beam elements 2) solid elements?
please refer any good tutorials in this field.
FSI Analysis to Understand Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
1. We present an interesting application of ADINA FSI in the study of carpal tunnel syndrome. The analyses involve large deformations and contact of multiple flexible bodies which are immersed in a fluid:

2. Please recall that we offer a very attractive academic package, for research and teaching, for university users. For more information see
Geometric Nonlinear Finite Element Program
I'm programming a finite element program to analyze the force of submarine pipeline.When the pipeline is lifted highly from seabed，it is a large deformation problem.
Is there any open soure to solve the problem?
Give me some advices.
Thanks a lot!
Survey on XFEM: is XFEM good at characterizing Failure rather than Fracture?
Would like to hear your expertise/user/non-expert/sceptic comments on XFEM. Here are some of the challenges. Would like to hear your relections.
1. Can XFEM be utilized in characterizing Failure rather than Fracture?
2. What sort of challenges XFEM still have with respect to Fracture Mechanics?
3. How the Fracture mechanics benefit the industry, from the perspective of strcutural integrity?
4. Failue investigations vs. Fracture investigations: benefit to industry?
5. Academist vs Engineer: Perspective on XFEM
Water Content In Exhaust Gas (Diesel Fuel)
Hi everyone,
I would like to know if anyone would be able to help me calculate(or measure) accurately the Moisture Content / Water vapour content in the Exhaust Gas of an Engine.
I would like to know if anyone would be able to help me calculate(or measure) accurately the Moisture Content / Water vapour content in the Exhaust Gas of an Engine.
I wish to determine the components of the Exhaust Gas for a Combustion Chamber(so that I am able to calculate the Gas Constant of the Exhaust Gas) and
I have been able to measure the values of Oxygen(in %), Carbon di oxide(in %), Carbon monoxide(in PPM), NOx (in PPM).
