Analysis of beams and plates using shear lock free finite elements based on Timoshenko beam and Mindlin-Reissner plate theories

Submitted by psubbu2000 on

Simple finite elements based on Timoshenko beam and Mindlin plate theories have been developed for the analysis of thick and thin structures (beams and plates) using standard finite element procedure. These elements have 3 dof and a new concept, Convergence Factor, is introduced in the formuation to accelerate convergence keeping the number of elements constant. No shear correction factor is used and no shear lock problem is encountered.

PhD position available in computational mechanics at University of Rhode Island

Submitted by Hongyan Yuan on

I am looking for a PhD student to work on molecular and cellular biomechanics. This position will be available starting in this coming fall or spring semester in the Department of Mechanical, Industrial and Systems engineering at University of Rhode Island.

Prior experience in cellular biomechanics or molecular simulations is a plus. Interested candidates are encouraged to send a CV to Dr. Hongyan Yuan at (hongyan_yuanhongyanyuan [at] seas.harvard.edu (@uri.edu)).

Marie Curie PhD position at University of Trento (Italy): deadline June 30

Submitted by Davide Bigoni on

Please, give a look to my research activity at http://www.ing.unitn.it/~bigoni and to my group at http://ssmg.unitn.it



If you are strongly motivated to work with a very active group in Solid Mechanics, we have a PhD position (3 years) available from November 2014, but the deadline for application is June 30, 2014!



The position is on a EU grant and is addressed to numerical/theoretical modelling of ceramics.
