My name is Mario Pinto. I have a bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering (2006) and a masters degree in Computational Science (2008). Since August 2008, I have been working at Computational Research Labs, Pune, India in the Computational Materials Group. My work mostly involves the use of MD, and I use LAMMPS for all simulations.

I am looking for a PhD position in the area of molecular simulations, applied to studystructure / properties /

shape function

please any one tell me how i will get the shape function for the three noded beam element

i mean tell me /what is the procedure for the hermite shape function.

how the slopes hermite graphs come ,with releted to the nodal displacement (ζ)which is (-1≤ζ≥1)

Dear friends,

Is there anyone who use LS-DYNA program to simulate shear wall type structure, and what kind of MAT and elements do you think is suitable to simulate the shear wall?

Thank you!
