I am working on reinforced fiber composites, after modelling the unit cell(R.V.E) of the composite various boundary conditions are applied. After this result is obtained. The results are element(elements produced after meshing)-oriented. I want the stress as a whole on the whole unit cell. I have tried measuring the forces on the faces by taking the cumalative of nodal forces on each face. However, the common edges creates a problem. Can you suggest any other methos of calculating the stress on whole body.

2) How to take care of mixed mode loading

A PhD opportunity in the field of computational and applied mechanics is available in the department of Civil and Environmental engineering at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.

Qualifying candidates must have a strong background in mechanics and mathematics. Familiarity with scientific computing in one of the widely used programming languages (e.g. Fortran, C++ or Python)is required.

hello, everybody 



    I've made a 3D multi-story frame and shear-wall model in Abaqus. So far, I wanna get the equivalent story mass, story stiffness and story modal displacement. how to extract the story mass and story displacement in Abaqus?   or how to make an equivalent multi-mass point system from original 3D multi-story model? 



Thanks in advance
