Looking for reviewers to review an article on synthesis and analysis of aminothiazoles dye and its metal complexes

Submitted by amkaush on

Hi All,

 

The below-referenced paper is submitted for publication in Smart Nanocomposites Journal. I am currently looking for reviewers and through this blog, I am extending an invitation to review the article (title below):

 

Title of the Manuscript: Synthesis of 2-aminothiazoles dye and its metal
complexes as agents for organic/inorganic heterojunction

j integral and stress intensity factor relation

Submitted by haidir on

Hi,

Dear all,

We all know that J can be calculated by J=1/E(KI^2+KII^2).

but how to calculate the KI and KII from J.

I facing this pronlem as Abaqus can only calculated J integral for epfm, but I need the KI and KII as I only got K threshold and KIC for the material.

 Thank You

Haidir

3 PhD positions are now available at the Department of Innovation Engineering at the University of Salento in Lecce, Italy. Funding is provided by the European Research Council Starting Researcher Grant project "INTERFACES-Mechanical Modeling of Interfaces in Advanced Materials and Structures".

The successful applicant will work on topics related to computational methods for interface modeling, isogeometric analysis, and multiscale methods.

Applicants should possess the following qualifications/attributes:

Postdoc in MD Simulations and Theory of NanoFriction (Erio Tosatti's Group, SISSA, Trieste)

Submitted by vanossi on

Funded through SNF SINERGIA Project ‘Understanding nanofriction and dissipation across phase transitions’, we open in SISSA a postdoctoral position (‘assegno di ricerca’) in the area centered around nanoscale tribology (friction, dissipation, adhesion, wear) involving modeling, theory, and molecular dynamics computer simulations of nanofrictional and nonlinear dissipation phenomena, especially in presence of continuous phase transitions.

[ABAQUS] Through-wall crack in a pipe

Submitted by P. F. C. on

Hi iMechanicians,

Currently modelling pipes, I am trying to calculate J-integral for through-wall crack. I do not use XFEM method since it does not work very well with elastic-plastic materials then I use the classic approach and I must sketch a precise mesh around the crack tip, which is perpendicular to the external (and internal too) surfaceof the pipe.

Ansys help - simple flow rule analysis

Submitted by koolraj09 on

Hi all.

I want to analyse a plate with a hole using ansys. But it has a material non-linearity. The stress strain law I want to use is σ = K εn


I want to know how it can be done. I've seen  and tried ansys but it has options like kinematic hardening etc... but how to incorporate this relation...please guys it's urgent!!

Thanks.
