Enquiry about modelling a cylinder filled with water in ABAQUS / CFD

Submitted by mayfly on

Dear All



 My name is Paula , I am new user in CFD coupled with ABAQUS. I would like to know and understand how can I simulate cell wall filled with  of water. If the tank sloshing example good way to start with cfd/ABAQUS? .

The problem
is that the cytoplasm ( high % is water) has an internal pressure. I
would like to make the simulation with outside presure ( hydrostatic pressure)
and find which is the outside pressure to brake the cell
wall and the cytoplasm gets free.

 

Postdoc position, modeling growth, differentiation and adaptation of biological tissues

Submitted by azadpoor on

I have a one-year vacant postdoc position. The work will be mostly related to development of FE models for modeling growth, differentiation, and adaptation of biological tissues. The postdoc needs to know a lot about nonlinear continuum mechanics and advanced material models and should be able to write FE codes and implement advanced material models in commercial FE programs.
