Subject to a voltage, a dielectric elastomer can deform substantially, making it a desirable material for actuators. Designing such an actuator, however, has been challenging due to nonlinear equations of state, as well as multiple modes of failure, parameters of design, and measures of performance. This paper explores these issues, using a spring-roll actuator as an example.
I was reading this research from A&M Texas on Viagra and Watermelon.

I have noticed that it has made the front page news on many newspapers
worldwide in a matter of few days. Maybe we should move to this field,
and because below I find that there are indeed interaction with aorta stiffness and elastic wave reflections.

How to develope a new potential function.
For instance, if I want to study a new material system by classical MD, for which the existing potential force fields are not suitable.
I would like to know the standard procedure, how to use the first principle studies/ experimental data and how to select the basic functions...from the experts in this area.

Hi all
I am in the process of developing my first user element in Abaqus, and finding it rather difficult.
The
application requires modelling muscle behaviour. Hence a spring model
(linear at this stage) with 3 elements: 2 in series with each other,
and these 2, parallel to the third was implemented.
My problem involves static condensation of the stiffness matrix. (similar to mixed-methods)
Any advice/assistance would be great. Especially with regard to development of the user element in Abaqus.
there are many forums in biochemistry (and in any other topic)

... and many others that i dont know!!!
if i have a question i have to send my question to each of them one by one is there any better way?
Writing!!!!!!!! Writing!!!!!!!!!!!!! Writing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nowadays all of the institutions demand “paper” submission; this is a part of the academy. Even in the high school student, they want to submit some writing like coursework writing, for research students, undergraduate students, and post graduate students – all of the students are suffering to submit papers within the time.
