Dear Colleagues:

Wing Kam Liu and I (Ashfaq Adnan) would like to invite you to submit abstract(s) to the following mini-symposium at the upcoming 11th U.S. National Congress on Computational Mechanics (http://www.usnccm.org/). The congress is scheduled to be held on July 25-29, 2011 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.

 14.2 Multiscale Transport Phenomena in Biological and Biomedical System 

Two PhD Positions available in Computational Multiscale Mechanics at the University of Colorado at Boulder

Submitted by regueiro on

I am currently seeking two PhD students to pursue separate research projects in computational multiscale mechanics within the Department of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering at CU Boulder: (1) overlap coupling between a 3D ellipsoidal DEM code and a finite strain pressure-sensitive micromorphic elastoplasticity finite element implementation in an opensource C++ code Tahoe ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/tahoe/ ) to model interfacial mechanics between deformable solids and dense dry granular materials; and (2) multiscal

Voronoi tesselation-grain size and orientation

Submitted by Panos Efthymiadis on

Dear all,

         I am trying to produce a metallic grain structure  using Voronoi. I am currently using Matlab. Does anyone know how I can control the area of the polygons-grains (impose a Gaussian distribution)? And another point is how can I assign the grain orientation for every polygon?

Regards,
