question about crack growth path
I am tring to get a path of the crack growth ,but it seems there is no one focusing on it , and no rule about it on book.
below is my simulation in abaqus

Postdoctoral position in molecular mechanics at U Minnesota
<p>A postdoctoral position is available in the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geo-Engineering at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities. The computational project aims to provide a fundamental understanding of water and solute transport across polymer films, and of the interaction of biomolecules with polymeric aqueous interfaces.
Co_simulation abaqus dymola
Hello,
How can i run a co_simulation with two PC, one will run with abaqus and the other will run with dymola
How can i do this Co_simulation
Thnx
Job opening for a Research Scientist at A*STAR IHPC, Singapore
The Soft Matter group in the Engineering Mechanics department of A*STAR IHPC is seeking a highly motivated and qualified Research Scientist to work in the area of applied mechanics and materials, with focus on soft active materials. The applicant must hold a PhD in applied mechanics, mechanical engineering, or relevant fields. The candidate should have experience in finite element simulation, as well as the ability to implement in-house codes and user-subroutines.

Faculty position in the department of mechanical and aerospace engineering at UCSD
The Department of Mechanical & Aerospace Engineering (MAE, http://maeweb.ucsd.edu/) at the Jacobs School of Engineering (JSOE) at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant/Associate/Full Professor rank with research focus on experimental and/or computational mechanics of advanced materials under extreme conditions.
What is exactly the 'pressure' of a solid in thermodynamics?
Most literatures on thermodynamics are written or started with the language of 'ideal gas'.
This confuses me a lot when I switch to consider solids. For example, the enthalpy of a system
is defined as H = U + P*V, where P is the pressure of the 'system'. This definition is found to be convenient
when dealing with gas. But in terms of solids, I really doubt if the 'pressure' is meaningful. The volume makes
sense but its relation with energy should be expressed in another way when we consider for example cold-
work.
creating a zero-thickness layer using ABAQUS 6.13
i have concrete slab and cfrp sheet i want to strength that slab with cfrp sheet so i try to model the epoxy layer as a cohesive layer between them the issue is when creating the orphan meshing which can be done by mesheing all instances as a normal mesh then selecting the slab and cfrp and go to mesh/creat mesh part after that go to mesh/edit and then selecting mesh/offset(creat solid layers) and now abaqus requires to select the element faces from which the offset will be generated so i selected the cfrp surafce that must be sticked to the slab by epoxy and then i create the set and assig
