Does anybody know how to represent a fiber-reinforced annulus part: ground substance is hyperelastic with neo-hooke coefficient; fiber-reinforcement are elastic?

Part 3 of Elements of Elasticity. Please see attached.

hello fellow and future engineers/mechanicians i just want to say that I think mechanics is really cool and especially taught by Henry Tan! I hope this gets me a few points ;-)

when we talk about magnetism, we use Ising Model or Heisenberg model

if possible can you give me some suggestion about these two model for (one dimensional, two dimensional)

The best place to start is Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereology.

Most active research in stereology is done in medical and biological community.

Hi

Has any body used comsol pde. please guide me through the basics of comsol methods.

Cheers

Please introduce yourself in this blog. This is a class to learn
engineering mechanics, but also a class to make friends with in-class
and international students, and worldwidely recognized experts.

Hello colleagues,

 Would anybody know good references on numerical integration of non-polynomial functions? It would be enough for me to obtain one-dimensional rules. Of course, it could have impact for XFEM applications, but for another, improved XFEM method that we are developing.

Note  that I am not talking about integrating singularities, but non-polynomial functions. Examples:

sqrt(x)

cos(x)

sin(x)

product of these.

Thanks for any help,

Stephane

Generation of open ends carbon nanotubes coordinates (atomic positions) is easy and the generation of cap for these carbon nanotubes is extremely difficult. Some of the half-fullerenes (C60, C240, C540…) fit as a cap for the armchair and zigzag nanotubes. NanotubeModeler  (http://www.jcrystal.com/products/wincnt/index.htm) software generates the carbon nanotubes with cap but they are limited to few armchair and zigzag configurations.
