Urgent - EU PhD student needed: Modelling of the mechanical and electrical response of composite materials
We are looking for a PhD researcher to work at numerical simulations of the electro-mechanical response of nano-reinforced polymers. The position is fully funded including tuition fees and a competitive maintenance/salary (of approximately 3k euros/month), as well as additional benefits for those with a family. The researcher will work towards a PhD in Mechanics of Composites at Imperial College London, Department of Aeronautics, under the supervision of Dr V.L. Tagarielli and Dr S.T. Pinho and in collaboration with several research groups in London and across Europe.
Error about Degree of Freedom 11 in Abaqus
Hi friends, I'm new here and also new using abaqus.
I need to do my final project about bird strike analysis using abaqus. But for now, I try to follow the tutorial from youtube about impact bullet first. For some trial sometimes i found errors and never succeed to solve it. Included the impact bullet trial. This is what i've got:
errors:
plastic energy density in an element
Hi every body,
I did an orthogonal cutting simulation and I want to calculate the plastic deformation energy density distribution underneath the tool tip during cutting.
Anyone can give me more informations about this?
Thanks
Positions filled: 4 postdoc openings - UC San Diego (US) and Cardiff (UK)
Applications are sought for four Post-Doctoral Research Associates to join a very active research group at Cardiff University, UK (School of Engineering) and the University of California, San Diego, USA (Structural Engineering Department). Three postdocs will be based at Cardiff and one at UC San Diego, and there will be frequent interactions and travels between. The research will formulate and develop numerical methods for mulitiscale and multiphysics design optimisation using level set topology optimization.
abaqus multiple user subroutine- updating solution dependent variables
Hello everyone,
im running a job using 2 user defined subroutine,have a problem initializing solution dependent variables,i have 2sets of state variables (umatht=25 state variables and uexpan 38 state varables.how can i use *initial condition, type = solution to define them?? is it a correct way of defing them??
Postdoctoral opening in bioMEMS at Northwestern University
Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Fellow in the area of bioMEMS. The candidate will interact closely with personnel at the start-up company iNfinitesimal, LLC and collaborators at Northwestern’s Feinberg Medical School. The position will involve research at the intersection of engineering and biology with an emphasis in device design, fabrication, and system integration toward the development of nano- and micro-technologies for biological applications.
Requirements:
Postdoctoral opening at Northwestern University
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position within the Micro and Nano Mechanics Laboratory in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Northwestern University. The candidate will perform research in the area of nanomechanics of high-performance materials such as 2D materials, nanowires, and biomaterials. The candidate will be expected to contribute to a vibrant multidisciplinary research group and be able to work in close collaboration with chemists and theoreticians.
Requirements:
Uni-axial Compression Test
Hi everyone,
I am trying to simulate the diagonal shear band under uniaxial Compression test for cylinder . No matter how I change the Boundary conditions I still get an X shape damage !!
I weakend the two edge elements to get damage . But it is still not working!!!
Any Idea?
Degree of freedom 11 and at least one of degrees of freedom 1 thru 6 must be active in the model for *dynamic temp-disp. Check the procedure and element types used in this model.
