Dear all,
I would like to run a tensile test under ls-dyna of a mild steel and
apply a 7000 N load to the dog bone specimen on a explicite scheme.
Unfortunately, I
have wild deformations ( and an error) on the nodes on edges where the
load is applied, so can you please tell me what are the importants
constants (like time termination, mass scale,...) and how to perform a
perfect run?
Have a good day,
Thank you
M.

Hi all
I am a beginner on MultiScale Analysis.
I am studying on "MultiScale Analysis of Carbon Nanotubes and nanocomposites".
is there any commercial software or open source program for multiscale modelling of CNT and nanocomposites??
Gurtin–Murdoch continuum surface elasticity model is employed to study the buckling
delamination of ultra thin film–substrate system. The effects of surface deformation and
residual stress on the large deflection of ultra thin film are considered in analysis. A
concept of effective bending rigidity (EBR) for ultra thin plate is proposed on the basis of
Gurtin–Murdoch continuum theory and the principle of minimum potential energy. The
governing equations with EBR are formally consistent with the classical plate theory,
Hi all
Do i have to use geostatic step when i use hermal expansion to analyze single pile in expansive soil?
No more applications will be considered for the above mentioned the position.
Thank you for the interest.
Hi ,
I'm working on simulation of wave propagation in a bar. I'm using
newmark time integration scheme to solve my problem. I have a bae
clamped at one end and under tensile at the other end. when I decrease
my time step ,at the beginning of the loading I see tiny negative
strains which is so weird. I used some numerical damping with the scheme
and I could reduce the time step but still I have this problem in
smaller time steps. Can anyone help me with this?
Thank you very much!!!
Dear All,
I am looking for one postdoctor to work on advanced concrete materials and modeling. The desired candidates will have a solid knowledge on concrete materials and mechanics, and are familiar with advanced modeling of hydration, water or chemical transfer in concrete. Extra considerations will be given to candidates with some experimental experiences on concrete microstructures and material characterization.
Dear All,
I am looking for highly motivated PhDs/PostDocs to join my group to work on various aspects of efficient high-fidelity modeling of composite structures/materials, mainly related with VABS/VAPAS/VAMUCH. The basic qualifications are: basic training in solid mechanics and composite materials, excellent math and programming skills, and good English communication skills. Please let me know if you are interested or if you know somebody is interested.

Dear Mechanicans,
I work with Abaqus 6.11-1 and would create a parametric study to studie results from multiple analysis.
In my first example I use a geometric easy specimen where I sampling the young's modulus in a cube.
I create and perform a parametric study what works very well. But if I would gather results of one element set from the output database (odb) Abaqus prompt that "element or node labeles are required". I have read the Abaqus User's Manual but dosent found a suitable solution.
for any helpful hints I am very grateful.
