Hexagonal self avoiding walk polymer

HI There,

I am going to generate a polymer chain and I am looking for a hexagonal self avoiding walk (SAW) code (computer program), most 3D free code (C nad fortran) are for qubic latice.

Thanks

what is the Difference between carbon steel and mild steel?

Submitted by erpankajgulati on Sun, 03/13/2011 - 19:55

Since in Industry we commonly use the the terms mild steel and carbon steel

I know that mild steel is also known as low carbon steel

then what is crbon steel

how do we differentiate that

Help me!

nonlinear buckling analysis in ansys

Submitted by firozahmed49 on Sun, 03/13/2011 - 10:41

research

hi, i am modeling a composite shell in ansys for nonlinear bucklin analysis.

i have to apply a displacement from one end keeping radial and circumferential degree constant. I have used shell 4node 181 for modelling and element elemrnt size 10.

Also i have to applied a torque of 0.0005 degree so as to perform torsional analysis on shell.

I am confused how to apply this axial displacement and radial degree of displacement to shell in ANSYS 11.

PLEASE ANYONE HELP ME HERE!!!!!!!!!!!
