Dear friends and colleagues,
We invite you to submit an abstract to Symposium on Mechanics of Soft Materials. This symposium is part of 2010 ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress & Exposition, November 12-18, 2010 Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. This symposium is sponsored by the newly formed Mechanics of Soft Materials technical committee in Applied Mechanics Division of ASME.

SUBMIT YOUR ABSTRACT BY 1 MARCH 2010
I wrote these notes on the Griffith (1921) paper for a graduate course on fracture mechanics taught in 2010. The notes were updated when I taught the course in 2014, and were discussed in a new thread titled Inglis (1913) vs. Griffith (1921).
Submitted to the Journal of Applied Mechanics on 2/1/2010.
I need composite pressur vessel analysis, solution manual /procedure
Hi,
I am doing some test on the fracture toughness.
I am wondering if in Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics, Fracture toughness of the material is equal to fracture energy or not?
Can anybody send me an naswer,
Thank you,
Manooir
Hi every body,
I need to generate a mesh around the crack front line in 3-dimensional space using a layer of prism (wedge) elements at the crack line and tetrahedron elements at the rest parts of the model. However, to keep the compatibility we also need to adopt a layer of pyramid elements between wedge elements and the tetrahedrons. Dose any body know how can I do that in ABAQUS? Is pyramid element available in ABAQUS's element library or is there any chance to get that through degenerating another element type? if so, how?
Any suggestions regarding papers on metal-infused cellular materials? E.g., aluminum or aluminum metal-matrix composite infused into open cell titanium with millimeter scale pores?
We present an interesting application of ADINA FSI in cardiovascular mechanics, specifically, a potential cause for heart attacks is studied. Please see
