Polymers are commonly foamed in the solid phase by the expansion of a dissolved gas such as CO2. The foaming process is sensitive to the constitutive properties of the polymer, and the final porosity is dictated by bursting of the cell walls. There is a need to model the solid foaming process for a range of polymers in order to determine the sensitivity of foaming to the properties of the polymer and to the process variables (such as thermal history and CO2 content). The foam expansion response is sensitive to the constitutive properties of the polymer.
Dear all,
I am seeking some insights from professionals in any field to guide me and help me decide where to focus.
I have done masters in aeronautical and mechanical engineering and I have 5 years of experience in the field of design and development. From an Australian point of view, I am an experienced mechanical design engineer/mechanical designer.
Below is the video link to my first lecture video, where in I tried to demonstrate the failure of brittle materials using simple experiments.

The 2016 impact factor for Journal of Applied Mechanics has increased to 2.133. This increase is mainly due to the rapid review process, which has led to significant increase of submissions (and significant decrease of the acceptance rate). The average time for the first round of review is < 10 days, and that for the second round of review (if necessary), including both the authors' revision time and reviewers' re-review time, is < 3 weeks.
The enthalpic response of amorphous polymers depends strongly on their thermal and deformation history. Annealing just below the glass transition temperature (Tg) causes a large endothermic overshoot of the isobaric heat capacity at Tg as measured by differential scanning calorimetry, while plastic deformation (cold work) can erase this overshoot and create an exothermic undershoot. This indicates that a strong coupling exists between the polymer structure, thermal response and mechanical deformation.
Hi, I am looking for the post-doctoral position in structural dynamics ( instability of the thin structures, shell theory, composite structures, static and dynamic buckling of the shells). I am currently a Ph.D. candidate in the Nonlinear Mechanics Laboratory at Indian Institute of Tehnology Kanpur (India) where Dr. Pankaj Wahi and Dr. Sovan Lal Das have adviced my research for the past four years. My PhD thesis deal with the shell theory and dynamic behavior of the shell ( especially thin-walled circular cylindrical shells).
This webinar will highlight some of the key new functionality enabled by the updates, as well as showing a live demonstration of a single stage centrifugal compressor stage consisting of impeller, vaned diffuser and return channel/de-swirl vane.
Hi friends;
I built a model in solidworks and Imported it in ansys workbench for modal analysis. In ansys workbench my model has many gaps; therefore many contact and target elements are defined. In ansys workbench bonded contact element is defined. Do effect bonded contact and target elements on frequencies and modeshapes in my problem? Do change bonded contact and target elements frequencies and modeshapes?
please help me.
Regards.
Mina
