Abaqus is not reporting any CEEQ in coupled temp-displacement step
Hi all,
I am modeling a simple coupled temp-displecment analysis with the following step information:

Postdoc Position - University of Pittsburgh
POSTDOCTORAL ASSOCIATE POSITION University of Pittsburgh The Shankar Research Group (www.shankarlab.pitt.edu) at the University of Pittsburgh anticipates an opening for a postdoctoral associate starting tentatively in September 2014. The position’s primary area of research will focus on mechanical instabilities and actuation in structures fabricated from photoresponsive, azobenzene-functionalized liquid crystal polymers and polyimides. A background in experimental mechanics and mechanical characterization is required.

How to use abaqus input files from abaqus example problems guide
I am new to abaqus and am going through this tutorial on "Damage and failure of a laminated composite plate". I find lot of input files at the bottom of this example. I tried "importing" them by going to file->import but I find that there is no geometry or mesh associated with it. Does one create the geometry oneself? How do we use the sample ".inp" and ".f" files to learn about abaqus sample problems.
Deformations
What design considerations should i take to lessen my deformation in the assembly.
And what changes can i implement to reduse the deformations like (Should i use some holes etc.)
Thanks in advance.
Symmetric global partition polynomials for reproducing kernel elements
The reproducing kernel element method is a numerical technique that combines finite element and meshless methods to construct shape functions of arbitrary order and continuity, yet retains the Kronecker-δ property. Central to constructing these shape functions is the construction of global partition polynomials on an element. This paper shows that asymmetric interpolations may arise due to such things as changes in the local to global node numbering and that may adversely affect the interpolation capability of the method.
cdmHUB: Publish and Run Composites Simulation Tools In the Cloud
We recently launched the Composites Design and Manufacturing HUB (cdmHUB.org), a community-driven, collaborative platform that has the unique capability to let users to freely publish and run simulation codes in the cloud in addition to all the social network functionalities (blogging, questions/answers, groups, etc.).
