Dear Colleagues,

we are glad to present the Summer School on Fatigue and Damage Mechanics of Composite Materials (13 . 17 July 2015) and the Short Course on Experimental Techniques and Testing of Composite Materials (9 . 10 July 2015) organized by and to be held at The Department of Management and Engineering  - University of Padova in Vicenza - Italy.

Design and Optimization of Fans & Blowers Live Webinar | 22nd April

Submitted by ADT on

This webinar will highlight the application of 3D Inverse Design and TURBOdesign Suite to the design and optimization of fans and blowers for high stage performance and noise reduction.

The webinar is aimed at all fan and blowers design engineers and design managers looking to enhance their knowledge and understanding of the complex flow physics required to enhance fan and blowers stage performance while reducing noise.

Short Abstract:

How to deform an existing mesh from CT measurements?

Submitted by V. Pouzols on

Hi all,

I would like to know if someone has a trick to deform a mesh generated in Abaqus thanks to Computer Tomography measurements ? 

The file I received from CT is a .stl.

Do you know an open source software that can compute deviations between point clouds?

Thanks in advance for your support :-D

Post-doctoral position in Montréal on crystal plasticity in collaboration with the aerospace industry

Submitted by martin.levesque on

Hi

I am looking for a 12-15 months post-doctoral fellow to work on crystal plasticity finite element simulation of impacts. This project is parts of a larger collaborative project with Pratt and Whitney, Bell Helicopter, L3 and Héroux Devtek aiming at understanding the effects of shot peening on fatigue life. The project involves 3 other post-doctoral fellows and 4 PhD students.

The starting date is flexible and could be as soon as now, depending on the candidates expertise.

The interested candidates are invited to send me their CV and publication lists.

Essential Electrical Products for Industries

Submitted by jesonpitt on

When Thomas Alva Edison first invented the practical electric light bulb in the late 18th century, he never would have imagined that his inventions would someday become a necessity for living and industrial production. Since that first possibility that electricity can be used in different applications in practical life, various experiments and innovations have guaranteed the introduction of different electrical devices and products. 

Share/run engineering simulation codes in the cloud

Submitted by Wenbin Yu on

I know the mechanics community have many codes to share. If you have developed engineering software including legacy Windows codes or linux codes, you can easily publish your code in the cloud and have it run on any devices including smart phones through cdmHUB.org. The codes could be simple codes you wrote for your dissertation or comprehensive commerical package like ABAQUS or ANSYS. You don't have to change your code, no source codes are needed. All you need to do is to upload your executable through a very straight forward way which only takes a few minutes.
