Free Online Mechanics of Materials Textbook

Submitted by Madhukar Vable on Thu, 08/27/2009 - 12:57

I have posted the second edition of my book “Mechanics of Materials” online for free educational use. The book was reviewed and checked for accuracy by 30 faculty across the USA and was line edited by a professional editor.

The preface in the book describes the objectives and the design of the book, with details elaborated further in “Note to the Instructor”. The “Note to the Students” elaborates the many pedagogical features of the book. All these are in the file labeled “Table of content and front end material”.

Dear

All

any body had idea about what is the WRC code anf from where it is available?i want to find one relation between Et(tangent modules) ,Es(secant modules) and allowable comp.stress ?

if any one knows plz let me know..

ABAQUS/CAE

hello everybody,

i'm very much new new to ABAQUS 6.7-4, which i'm using it in my project work.

i just wanted some help regarding the procedures or any kind of tutorial that will help me learnig the software.

thank you.

Constitutuive modelling of viscoelastic materials

Submitted by bhargavasista on Tue, 08/25/2009 - 13:56

research

I am currently working on constictutive modelling of soft biological tissues, considering them as nonlinear viscoelastic materials. I am using the split form of energy density function i.e modelling separately the hyperelastc part and the visoelastic part. I am using Ogden formula for hyperelastic part and for the viscoelastic part, I am currently using the second and third invariants of stretch rate tensor.

Iso Chronous curve

Thanks Vijay

for giving me guide lines but my altimate aim is to the finding of devlopment of iso chronous curve for creep buckling.and for that while studing nonlinear strees strain curve we know that as in non linear stage the what is the value of stress and strain at time T=0 and time T=t? is the any formula for the Et and Es in non linear stress and strain?...and which procedure for calulation foe Et and Es?

dear all

is there any formaula or any theory by i can make a relation for the tangent and secent modules in the plastic region of the stress strain curve?....and also how to find Et and Es for the Alloy steel?.. if any body knows any thing than let me know soon..

warm regards
