Hi
I have 2 questions,
1- I am doing the crystal plasticity analysis of tensile test, at the first step in order to calibrate my model
I can use either force-displacemnt or stress-strain curve I was wondering which one is better to use, I am using abaqus-explicit
2-I need to find the rotation of elements in abaqus explicit. Are there any ideas about how can I extract the rotation tensor
In abaqus explicit.
Thanks
Here is an idea I submit for consideration by all iMechanicians, but esp. so by the admins and moderators. Discussion is welcome.
Idea: Why not have a Mechanics Gallery section here?
Origin: Recently, I was browsing for some OpenGL-encapsulating C++ class libraries, e.g. OpenSceneGraph, VTK, the game development libraries, etc. The Web sites of all such libraries always carry a "Gallery" page which is designed to attract the potential users. The Gallery page shows the capabilities and advantages of that library/framework.
hi
please wgo can tell me what does mean the folowings:
-", the modulus ratio in the first term in the Prony series expansion of the shear relaxation modulus."
-", the modulus ratio in the first term in the Prony series expansion of the bulk relaxation modulus."
and how to calculate them in abaqus
thanks
hi,
There is a half ph.d position (about 1000 euro per month after tax and all kinds of insurances) immediately avaialbe at the Leibniz Universität Hannover, Germany. The work is on MD simulation of fluid-surface interaction. Experience on finite element, molecular dynamics and computational fluid dynamics is highly desired. For those interested, please send your application to: shan [at] ibnm.uni-hannover.de.

An enthusiastic and highly motivated postdoctoral researcher is sought to work in the area of computational biomechanics by Dr. Kun Zhou’s group in the School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. The objective of the research is to study the tribological behaviors and damage mechanisms of joints and implants. The candidates should have relevant research expertise, experience in numerical modeling, and excellent writing skills. The contract will be one year and renewable subject to performance.
Am writing as a statement in my model the option initial conditions, am not sure where is the excat palce so i run my file to identify the error "as follows" but still not knowing where to do so?!! (it said under level: Model)!!!
Thank you!
Hello everybody
could anyone please tell me how to improve the convergence when using XFEM in Abaqus 6.10. I have tried small min increment 2.5e-16 and a total no of increments 1e9. Also, I have changed the control parameters to discontinuous analysis Io=8, IR=10, and IA=20 but actually I was not able to persuade XFEM to finalise the job.
Please help as all my life is waiting at that point.

Hello,
Am working on post tension prestressed concrete with Abaqus,
1- I would like to know where to find the "initial conditions option and prestress hold" in which module??
2- Rebar option: as per the Help, it is mentioned that i can define a rebar as individual element not as rebar layer in a shell/membrane element. but also couldn't be able to find how and in which module?
Any suggestions?
Wating for a quick feedback
thanks
Multiscale computation and modelling of granular materials
The energy/bio/nanomechanics group under the direction of Prof. Xi Chen at Columbia University is looking to recruit a highly motivated and independent postdoctoral researcher to study, based on computational nanomechanics and multiscale modeling, the mechanisms of energy absorption, conversion, harvesting, and storage using nanomaterials. The initial appointment is one year and the position can be renewed based on performance.
