Hello,

I was wondering if anyone knew the equation to find the necessary clamping force to expel a saline solution out from between two parallel plates. I would like the most general form of the equation if possible, but will provide more details if necessary.

Thanks!

Please find attached a report on a comparison between ANSYS SHELL181 and SOLSH190 elements with particular emphasis on applicability to linear elastic sandwich panels.

Title: Comparison of Ansys elements Shell181 and Solsh190

Abstract:

The Fluid Dynamics and Solid Mechanics group at Los Alamos National Laboratory is currently seeking outstanding candidates to fill a post-doctoral research position in computational solid/structural mechanics.

The prospective candidate is expected to take part in the development of non-classical, global-local plate/shell finite elements for applications involving the response and/or failure of composite structures under severe dynamic loading conditions.

 Hai,

 i tried to apply hydrostatic pressureon a plate.But the input file showes,it is distributed load .how can i get correct figure i.e, uniformly varying load on the plate

Hi all,

 I am looking for any literature on the solution the analysis of composite plates with multiple holes in them. I have been able to find plenty of information about single holes in composite plates but none on multiple hole interaction, hence this call for help.

Thank you in advance,

Fernando
