Hello,
I have a PhD position available for a project titled "A stochastic and computational approach for fracture modeling of quasi-brittle materials" funded by the U.S. National Science Foundation (NSF). This project homogenizes material properties using the so-called stochastic volume elements (SVEs). Based on the enderlying statistical properties derived from these SVEs, realizations of certain material properties are generated. These realizations are subsequently used for stochastic characterization of fracture response in quasi-brittle materials.
Dear all, I want to simulate graphene layers in Abaqus/Explicit. To connect two layers, I follow van der Waals forces and apply non-linear spring elements. One problem I have faced is how to choose the unit scale when simulating. If I choose SI(m) or SI(mm), I can not get the visualization of simulation results. I have read some papers which talk about using A, ev/A and eV/A3 for length, force and Young's modulus.
Because I use non-linear spring element, I have to use Abaqus/Explicit. But to run Abaqus/Explicit, I have to define mass density of graphene layers.
Dear colleagues,
You are cordially invited to submit abstract(s) to Symposium D-12 Mechanics, Materials, and Manufacture of Flexible and Stretchable Electronics at the 2016 SES meeting to be held at the University of Maryland-College Park during October 2-5, 2016. Abstracts can not be more than 350 words and are due on Wednesday, June 15, 2016.
Dear Colleagues,
We hope this message finds you well. We are organizing a symposium entitled "Mechanics of Biological and Bioinspired Materials" at The Society of Engineering Science (SES) 53rd Annual Technical Meeting at University of Maryland, College Park, from October 2–5, 2016. The deadline abstract submission is June 15, 2016.
My model has contact elements under static loads.
It converges in ANSYS 13 but when I run my script in ANSYS 17, it diverges!
I tried several solutions such as increasing the nimimum steps but still the problem exists.
Please let me know your solution for this problem.
Thank you.
Hamid.
