State of stress in a Uniaxial Tensile Test
Hello Mechanicians,
I have a doubt regarding Uniaxial Tensile Test which has bugged me for quite some time. It may be a trivial one, but it goes like this:

Postdoctoral research positions at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore
We are looking for a few postdoctoral researchers to work on the following topics at Nanyang Technological University, Singapore.
1. First-principles calculation/molecular dynamics simulation of two-dimensional materials for energy and environmental applications.
2. Numerical modeling of fracture and fatigue behaviors of metallic/polymeric materials.
Ripplocations = surface ripples + dislocations ?
Dislocations are topological line defects in three-dimensional crystals. Same-sign dislocations repel according to Frank’ s rule . This rule is broken for dislocations in van der Waals (vdW) layers, which possess crystallographic Burgers vector as ordinary dislocations but feature “ surface ripples” due to the ease of bending and weak vdW adhesion of the atomic layers. We term these line defects “ ripplocations” in accordance to their dual “ surface ripple” and “ crystallographic dislocation” characters.

Cohesive debonding using traction separation law
Hi Everyone,
I am trying to model peeling of polymeric film over metal substrate. I am uisng a zero thickness cohesive element layer between the film and substrate. In abaqus the quads mode is what I use and mode independent. I have a maximum displacement of 0.0001 m for damage evolution. I also have nominal stress normal only mode as 100 and Normal stress first direction as 50.
