Arguments for Drucker Prager creep model with user defined law??
Hey all,
I am trying to use Drucker Prager plasticity with Tension hardening model for my material in Abaqus. In addition, I want to use the Drucker Prager creep with user defined (user) law that is via creep subroutine. But when I try to choose the Drucker Prager creep in the Abaqus CAE, it gives an error, "not all required arguments specified; expected 1, got 0." I am not able to follow what arguments it is asking for when I am using a user defined law. Any help regarding the same will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Semiconductor Process Development and Integration with SEMulator3D
The NNIN/C at the University of Michigan will be hosting a presentation on “Semiconductor Process Development and Integration with SEMulator3D”, which will be broadcast live as a web based seminar.”, which will be broadcast live as a web based seminar.
Event Information:
Topic: Semiconductor Process Development and Integration with SEMulator3D
Date: May 9th, 2013
Time: 11:00 am – 12:00 pm EDT.
Presenters:
Dr. David M. Fried, Chief Technology Officer (CTO), Coventor.
Abstract:
Cables and Overhead Electrical Conductors
Cable and Overhead Electrical Conductor mechanical models are closely related. This can be seen from a recent review (January 2013) by Spak, K., Agnes, G. and Inman, D. : Cable Modeling and Internal Damping Developments, in the ASME journal Applied Mechanics Reviews, Vol. 65. The 18 pages paper, with its 86 references, has an interesting section on bending stiffness, with a rather (comparatively) extensive presentation of Papailiou’s stick-slip model. Use of the Coulomb spring-slider model for internal damping prediction is also presented.

ARECOR patents ground breaking heat stable adenovirus vaccine technology
ARECOR announces today a significant leap forward to enabling liquid-stable versions of live-virus containing products, used widely in vaccines and gene therapy products. Creative biogene has patented technology that enables liquid storage of adenovirus and removes an important limitation to more widespread use.
define the failure load of a concrete beam
how can i define the failure load of a concrete beam?
is it when the program stop
or when the steel reach fy
or when the strain in concrete becomes 0.003?
and how can i know is it a shear failure or a flexure failure?
