The use of Microindentation has proven to be a crucial tool for rock mechanics related studies. For example, Microindentation has been used to advance studies in excavation by allowing further understanding of rock mass properties and its separation. Microindentation has been used to advance drilling studies to improve drill heads and improve drilling procedures. Microindentation has also been used to study chalk and powder formation from minerals.
SoftInWay announces a free webinar on advanced approaches to multistage centrifugal compressor design, to be held on Thursday, March 31, 2011, at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. EST.
Multistage centrifugal compressors are widely used in gas pipeline systems and chemical industry. Defining optimal design parameters is critically important for saving energy at unit operation because these machines have high mass flow rate and significant total capacity.
Hi everyones,
I'm currently working on the subject of fluid flow in fractured porous
media. The fractures are considered as the circles of zero-thinkness in
3D infinite space. The fractures can intersect together.
I want to generate a consistent mesh i.e. it takes into account the
intersection lines between fractures. In the case of small number of
fractures I can performance by hand. (as you see in the attached image1)
Two PhD scholarships are available at DTU Mechanical Engineering, Section for Solid Mechanics, in the field of fatigue and wear in rolling and sliding contacts. One has focus on computational stress and damage modeling, while the other has focus on elastohydrodynamic lubricant film modelling and experimental verification.
There is an opening for students who want to join a PhDcourse or combined master + PhD course (Going to directly Ph.D. course without master thesis afterB.S.) in Department of Aerospace Engineering, GyeongsangNational University, South Korea.
The successful candidate will do research under the adviseof Prof. Jin-Hwe Kweon in Structure and Composite Lab. Prof. Kweon researchareas include testing and finite element analysis of:
1. Composite Cylinder under hydrostatic pressure,
2. Mechanical and bonding joints between composite materials,with or without z-pinning
