Dear All,

I would like to announce a symposium in memory of Pr. Olivier Coussy

It will be held at Ecole des Ponts ParisTech, France from 18 to 20 April 2011.



All informations can be found in the ongoing website http://navier.enpc.fr/events/mpps2011

Hello!

Let's discuss here some subjects related to Fractal Fracture Mechanics and Fracture Thermodynamics,

1. Introduction

Dear all

I am looking for some papers about hygrothermal effect in composite plates.

some of these are here:

I am going to study the diaphragm behaviour of the composite slab under the lateral loading.

To simulate the system using FEM package (such as ANSYS or ABAQUS). the obtained results from FEM package would then be verified by experimental results that must be done by myself.

The Materials Department and the Department of Mechanical Engineering at UCSB invites applications for post-doctoral fellowships in computational mechanics, with an emphasis on (1) micromechanics of layered systems and (2) high temperature composites. The position involves significant collaboration with a wide variety of colleagues working on many aspects of structural materials, including those in industry and other academic institutions. Preference will be given to applicants with a strong track record of publication.

I’m very much obliged to you if you would be so kinds help me.  I am trying to design washing machine. Initially I want to try doing a static analysis. For this, I have modeled cylinder (shell) and, placing them on the solid ribs. After this i have applied boundary condition to the assembly, and also a load (centrifugal). For only Tie connection between cylinder and rib, I got simulation but less strain at rib region.

A new doctoral college, Energy Systems 2030, is about to start at Vienna University of Technology (TU Wien), Vienna, Austria.

A one-page flyer is available at http://www.ilsb.tuwien.ac.at/gener/DC_ENSYS_e.pdf and the doctoal college's web page can be found at http://ensys2030.tuwien.ac.at/EN/.

Within ENSYS 2030 there are 10 openings for doctoral students. Applications can be filed from August 5, 2010.

Hi there,

 Recently I have modelled a 2D block of soil, at the first step of analysis the soil block subjected to a gravitational load (Gravity) and gravitational stresses generated in the soil block, at the second step, a little rectangular part of soil block removed and currently a concrete block with same size of removed soil embedded on the soil block. this concrete block to be subjected a surface loading.

Risø National Laboratory for Sustainable Energy at the Technical University of Denmark, Risø DTU invites applications for a position as Professor with emphasis on research in Materials Mechanics and Composite Materials.
