 Dear colleagues,

Allow me to bring to your attention the 3rd edition of the International Workshop on Plasticity, Damage and Fracture of Engineering Materials, to be held in Istambul on October 4-6, 2023 (Link

Finite Extension of Accreting Nonlinear Elastic Solid Circular Cylinders

Submitted by arash_yavari on

In this paper we formulate and solve the initial-boundary value problem of accreting circular cylindrical bars under finite extension. We assume that the bar grows by printing stress-free cylindrical layers on its boundary cylinder while it is undergoing a time-dependent finite extension. Accretion induces eigenstrains, and consequently residual stresses. We formulate the anelasticity problem by first constructing the natural Riemannian metric of the growing bar. This metric explicitly depends on the history of deformation during the accretion process.

ISO 27727:2008 Rubber, vulcanized — Measurement of fatigue crack growth rate

Submitted by SRattan on

Hi, 

I previously worked on puncture and tearing of elastomeric gels and new to the world of elastomer fatigue.

Would someone be kindly willing to share ISO standard on fatigue of rubbers?

Also, does someone here have a mechanical drawing of pure shear/planar tension grips that can be machined? I am looking to machine grips that can withstand high strain rate fatigue testing of soft elastomers (10-30 MPa).

 

Thanks,

Shruti

Mini-symposium at ASME IMECE 2023 on scientific machine learning and uncertainty quantification

Submitted by danialfaghihi on

Jessica  Zhang, Alireza Tabarraei, Kathryn Maupin, and myself are organizing a mini-symposium on “Data-Enabled Predictive Modeling, Machine Learning, and Uncertainty Quantification in Computational Mechanics,” in the ASME IMECE 2023 (October 29 – November 2, 2023). The symposium solicits abstracts on novel scientific machine learning (SciML) and uncertainty quantification (UQ) methods a wide range of applications across science, engineering, and medicine.
