My co-organizers and I invite you to submit an abstract to the upcoming symposium “Multiscale Perspectives on Plasticity in Metals” at the ASME 2012 International Mechanical Engineering Congress & Exposition (IMECE), to be held November 9-15, 2012 in Houston, Texas. This symposium will explore the unique challenges to understanding plastic deformation in metals and formulating material models that can accurately predict thermo-mechanical deformation.

Hello sir\Mis

I have a problem about taking an out put from abaqus. I have modelled a Steel Bar in abaqus that is loaded by axial pressure in the both of end and different rotational  moment in the both end of the bar How I can determin Maximum angle of rotation in bar or value of rotation in both end of Bar , thanks very much ... 

Hi everybody. My name is Alexander Lyapin. I am a second year postgraduate student of Southern Federal University, Russia, Rostov-on-Don, and I am working in the field of poroelasticity. The topic of my future dissertation is "Dynamic problems of poroelastic enviroments". The main problems in my dissertation are fundamental solutions and enviroments with cavities of common arbitary shape. I use different methods such as boundary integral equations method Fourie transformation method and some other.

Dear All,
These days I am do some research on vibration of circular plates (out-of-plane and in-plane). In the reference, the displacement in radial direction can be expressed with Bessel polynomial. I want to use the Rayleigh-Ritz method to solve these problems. The strain energy and kinetic energy can obtain with integral. If there is the bessel function, how to calculate the integral. Also I want to consider some spring in the boundary to change the boundary conditions.

Two PhD positions are available to work on corrosion of aluminum and steel. Students are expected to study "how corrosion affects the microstructres in the metal and alloys".

Positions are available in world's leading research laboratory. Interested students may contact on the following website:

how to do a crack propagation analysis?

can abaqus be used for doing crack propagation analysis for plates with multiple cracks?
