Schlumberger-Doll Research (SDR) center is looking for a six month research intern with modeling simulation and mechanical engineering background. The scientist will work in SDR scientists to develop a thermal-mechanical model for oil and gas applications. The ideal candidate will have knowledge of finite element modeling, solid mechanics and heat-transfer.

Could anyone help me to define transverse mechanical properties of unidirectional fiber composite in ABAQUS/CAE?

Submitted by Mohammed_AlEdhari on Mon, 07/11/2016 - 18:10

Hello everyone,

I want to model a unidirectional fiber composite using ABAQUS/CAE. The fiber has transverse mechanical properties. I used the engineering constants to define the mechanical properties of fiber.

Could anyone help me in how to define transverse mechanical properties in ABAQUS?

Thanks in advance

Abstract

Are there any numuerical or analytic formula for the estimation of dislocation density?

Submitted by arash.p.j on Sun, 07/10/2016 - 06:05

1. There are several experimental microscopy techniques for the calculation of dislocation density; but are there any reliable numerical ones, as well ? like those, which least include experimental parameters, except for some initial ones, like the initial density of dislocation, such as Reid's formula [1].

2. as a result of dislocation accumulation after deformation, slip bands form. are there any numerical techniques for slip band density estimation?

Dear Professor,

I am Fan Xie, a PhD in solid mechanics, Beihang University.

I am looking for a postdoctoral position in computational mechanics (MDs, FEM etc.) now. I have published 9 journal papers and 2 conference papers. I deeply understand the modeling of nano materials and nanocomposites (fiber reinforced, IPCs or bicontinuous composites) based on either Molecular Dynamics simulation (MDs) or FEM. And I am a hard working person as a Chinese student who is crazy about science.
