Post-Doctoral Positions at the Tsinghua Center for Combustion Energy

Submitted by frankwanger on

A Center for Combustion Energy has been established at Tsinghua University in Beijing, China.

The need for such a center is motivated by the central role that combustion plays in energy sustainability and climate change,

 by the emergence of China as a major industrialized nation and her commitment to seek solutions to these global problems,

and by the potential that combustion can contribute to the advance of diverse disciplines of frontier science that involve reacting flows.

Dugdale -Barenblatt cohesive zone model outside the contact zone

Submitted by rdalmeya on

Dear sir

        I am Ravi dalmeya doing Phd from Indian Institute of Technology,Kanpur (India). I am doing work on adhesive elastic wavy  thin film. I have completed 2-D Hertzian contact between cylinder and elastic half space using Abaqus. Now i want to apply Dugdale-Barenblatt cohesive zone model outside the contact zone and i do not know  how to apply  Dugdale-Barenblatt cohesive zone model outside the contact zone.Can you give me some suggestion?



Thanking you
