Hello, everybody. I'm having a problem regarding the application of a line load beyond the contours of a channel tube made out of shell elements. I am trying to perform lateral torsional buckling analysis and the load needs to act in shear center. Does anybody have a solution for this?
A recently published paper "Evaluating the macroscopic yield behaviour of trabecular bone using a nonlinear homogenisation approach" links the micromechanics of bone to its macroscopic behaviour. The paper may be of interest to colleagues on this forum. The abstract is provided below.
Abstract:
We would like to invite you to submit an abstract to the symposium on Mechanics of 3D Printed Materials and Structures at the 53rd Annual Technical Meeting of the Society of Engineering Science (SES2016) to be held during October 4-7, 2016 at the College Park Marriott Hotel & Conference Center (College Park, MD).
Symposium Technical Description
Plastic deformation in metallic glasses is highly localized and often associated with shear banding, which may cause momentary release of heat upon fracture. Here, we report an explosive fracture phenomenon associated with momentary (∼10 ms) light emission (flash) in Lanthanum-based (LaAlNi) metallic glass microwires (dia. ∼50 μm) under quasi-static tensile loading.
Hi everyone,
I am working on ABAQUS to simulate Pipeline Inspection Gauge (PIG) movement in a pipeline via CEL technique. I am unable to find how to calculate Pressure Difference in the pipeline using Abaqus.
If anyone of you can guide me through it.
Regards,
MD Aftab

Dear Colleagues,
The 53rd Annual Technical Meeting of the Society of Engineering Science will be hosted by the University of Maryland (UMD) during 2-5 October 2016 (note the new conference date). As part of this meeting, we are organizing a symposium to address recent experimental, computational, theoretical, and manufacturing advances on the mechanics and physics of soft materials. Topics of particular interest include:
