Kimpton Hotel Monaco, Philadelphia, PA

The U.S. SkyScan Micro-CT Workshop, hosted by Micro Photonics and Bruker MicroCT, brings together micro-CT imaging experts and users to share knowledge and experience in advancing methods and technology for micro-CT. The event will provide interactive sessions, as well as instructive presentations on computed tomography, analysis techniques, SkyScan products, and preparing SkyScan image data with Simpleware Software.

Synopsys at the Micro-CT Workshop

Membrane, bending, peak, total stress

Submitted by Yumlembam2 on Thu, 07/26/2018 - 14:53

What is the significance of these stresses from strength and fatigue perspective. Are these stresses still relevant for results interpretation? Is there a possibility of misinterpretation when using these in gas turbine assesments (or complex designs with thermal and mechanical loading)?

Modeling Soil around pipeline with stiffeners in abaqus

Submitted by hirad127 on Wed, 07/25/2018 - 11:00

#ABAQUS

I never worked with stiffeners in abaqus and now I should use theme. I want to model soil around pipeline with stiffeners. The stiffener behavior has 3 nonlinear components (x,y,z direction).
