[Deadline: 20 October 2017] ICDM3, July 4-6th, 2018, Shanghai, China - Session on Computational modeling of damage and failure in solids and structures
Dear colleagues,
We would like to draw your attention to the following minisymposium at the Third International Conference on Damage Mechanics (ICDM3) to be held in Shanghai, China, July 4-6th, 2018:
MS5: Computational modeling of damage and failure in solids and structures
organised by Jian-Ying Wu (South China University of Technology), Phu Nguyen (Monash University) and Zhenjun Yang (Zhejiang University). The topics are:
PhD position in computational damage mechanics and fracture mechanics
Context
In the context of Belgian research project, the Universite catholique de Louvain, the Universite libre de Bruxelles, and the Universite de Liege are collaborating to study from the atomic-scale to the macro-scale the thermomechanical failure of a new family of alloys.
PhD opportunity
Postdoctoral Position in Hydraulic Fracture Mechanics Available at Masdar Institute in Abu Dhabi
Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in hydro-fracturing (fracking) is
available immediately at Masdar Institute of Science and Technology in Abu
Dhabi in United Arab Emirates. Masdar Institute is established in collaboration
with Massachusetts Institute of Technology. The research project focuses on
using advanced computational fracture and damage mechanics for simulating
hydro-fracturing of rocks in hydrocarbon fields. The candidate is expected to
have a PhD in the field of geomechanics, or civil engineering with solid

Measuring damage variables from load-unload test (damage mechanics)

Hi All,
I want to use ductile damage model in ABAQUS to model the damage of thermoplastic polymers, in which I need to input the damage evolution law (\dot{d}).
My question is on the way we have to measure the variable d.
Suppose I have 10 cycles of load-unload test. For slope of the first load will be initial Young's modulus at undamaged state E_0. now for the next cycle, which part of the curve we need to measure their slope to get the damage variable (d = 1 - E/E_0).
