Veryst Engineering has an opening for a Multiphysics Simulation Engineer to work on problems involving fluid flow, structural mechanics, heat transfer and/or acoustics. Responsibilities include engineering analysis and design. Ph.D. or Masters Degree in mechanical engineering, biomedical engineering, aeronautical engineering, or physics with some industrial experience preferred. Strong academic record and references necessary. Experience with COMSOL Multiphysics, ANSYS, and/or Abaqus is desirable.

generat initial stresses ?

Hi everybody

I am a geotech engineer, I use a program Abaqus, I want to know

when I use tow layers of soil, each layer with their properties, when i use the contact between these layers

my question is; How i generat initial stresses without discontinuity between the two layers ?

Thanks

Do singular stress fields exist close to rigid corners?

phase field model of fracture with strongly anisotropic surface energy

Crack propagation in brittle materials with anisotropic surface energy is important in applications involving
single crystals, extruded polymers, or geological and organic materials. Furthermore, when this anisotropy
is strong, the phenomenology of crack propagation becomes very rich, with forbidden crack propagation
directions or complex sawtooth crack patterns. This problem interrogates fundamental issues in fracture
mechanics, including the principles behind the selection of crack direction. Here, we propose a variational

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to model an extended shear tab connection using ABAQUS 6.13-2, I've tried to model 4 connections and I compared the results I've got with the experimental work, and I noticed that the FEA is way stiffer that the experimental work, I have only one warning and it says "If significant clearance/overclosure exists between surface pair (assembly__pickedsurf579,assembly__pickedsurf580) and the master surface does not have rotational degrees of freedom, adjustment is recommended for correct enforcement of the tie constraint"
