ABAQUS and Soil Nailing Wall
Hi there,
I have a question regarding ABAQUS and soil nailing wall. In face I want to know what interaction or constraint can use to connect nail (truss element) and soil (shell element ) to work fine ? I tried tie but the problem is that when soil settled under loads it polls the wall inside and obviously it is wrong.
Thank you
Post-doctoral Position in Computational Mechanics at Los Alamos National Laboratory
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.
SPH modelling with LS-Dyna
Dear all,
I'm using LS-Dyna and I would like to model the interaction between a viscous fluid and metallic substrates.
If everything is working in 3D, it's not the same with the 2D...
Indeed I've used each contact algorithm (I think) in LS-Dyna and each time the contact between my 2D elements and the sph is not initiated.
Does anyone has an explanation to this curious problem ?
Maybe I'm not using the good contact setting.
Or contact between sph and 2D elements is not available in LS-Dyna.
A Theory of Ionic Polymer Conductor Network Composite
Ionic polymer conductor network composite (IPCNC) is a mixed conductor consisting of a network of loaded ionomer and another network of metallic particles. It is known that the microstructure of the composite, especially that of the electrodes, plays a dominating role in the performance of an IPCNC. However the microstructures of IPCNC have seldom been addressed in theoretical models. This letter formulates a continuum field theory for IPCNC by considering a supercapacitor-like microstructure with a large distributed interface area.
Local buckling
Dear all
I got to model the local buckling in Abaqus, but i do not know how. my model is a profiled steel sheet under distributed load.
does anyone have idea about this?
Thanks in advance

Polyethylene Foam Damping Coefficient
Hi,
I am doing drop test simulation in Ls-Dyna for a transport system consisting of polyethylene foam as cushioning material. Does anybody know damping coefficient value levels for LDPE (Low density polyethylene) foam materials in the range of density of 30-80 kg/m3.
Thanks in advance
