I am a final year Master of Engineering student at Materials Engineering Department, Indian Institute of Science. I have done my Bachelor of Engineering in Mechanical Engg. from Bengal Engineering and Science University, West Bengal, India. Currently I am working on my ME project "Simulation and Validation of Roll-Separating force and Limiting Reduction in Cold Rolling", under Prof Vikram Jayaram, Materials Engg Dept. and Prof S.K.Biswas, Mechanical Engg. Dept, IISc., Bangalore. After completion (June, 2011) of my ME, I want to do Phd. in the field of Computational Solid Mechanics, Fracture Mechanics and Materials Engineering. I am looking for a Phd. position in these fields. 

Please find my CV as an attachment.

Hi...

 I am doing 2-d simulation of rolling process using ABAQUS/CAE 6.5. I have done with rigid rolls but now I want to do with a deformable roll. I am giving boundary conditions for rotating the rolls at their position. For that, I define the centre of the roll as reference point and then used rigid body constraint. Then I give boundry conditions, U1=0, U2=0 and UR3= Non-zero at the refernce point. But now since I want to use deformable rolls, I can not the give rigid body constraint. Can somebody suggest me as to what kind of constraint should I use for constraining the reference point with the roll? Or some other method to  model deformable rolls?

Hi everybody,

          Can anybody tell me what is the difference between these two field outputs in ABAQUS?? First one is CPRESS and the other one is PRESSURE which comes under stress output??? Actually I want to know normal pressure for my work. Which one of these two will give me Normal pressure??? Thanks..

Hi,

I need to simulate a simple compression process. I want to know what kind of boundary conditions i have to give. I have tried giving displacement to the end plates or applying some uniform pressure at the end plates but I am not getting the expected pressure distribution at the contact. Plz somebody suggest me what to do???
