Hi
i am new new the the field of fracture mechanics i donot how to start it. can some one send some tutorial or other kind of help in doing fracture mechanics of nanocomposite using any software. Tutorials even of composites fracture mechanics using software so that i can have a idea about the fracture.
thanks in advance
Position is available for a postdoctoral fellow to carry out an industry sponsored project on carbon fiber composite modeling. The contract is initiated for one year, with possible extension if work progresses satisfactorily. The research will focus on
(1) micromechanics modeling of elastic and viscoplastic behavior of injection molded carbon fiber composites;
(2) homogenization techniques and constitutive model development for vibration, strength and impact simulations of carbon fiber composites.
Hope this will provide a good platform for young people.

At the chair of Computational Mechanics (chair Prof. T. Rabczuk) at the Bauhaus University Weimar, there is
1 open position for PhD-student or Post-Doc
for a maximum period of 3 years. The applicant is supposed to work in an international team and should suppose to collaborate with PhD-students and Post-Docs. In this project, effective coarse-graining methods for polymers and polymer-matrix composites should be devised and implemented in our in-house code.

Dear All,
We (the NanoBIO Node at Illinois ) have a preliminary release of an online finite element analysis of nanoindentation (indentation) tool using FEAP .
This preliminary release is limited to linear elastic material, axisymmetric geometry, spherical rigid indenter, and various boundary conditions.
Third Wave Systems, a leading
provider of CAE analysis software and services for machining manufacturing, is
seeking enthusiastic additions to our computational mechanics software
development team. This position holds
the primary responsibility of developing and implementing numerical methods,
finite element formulations, smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH), meshless
methods, adaptive and initial mesh generation, three-dimensional geometry
engines, mechanistic machining models, constitutive models for the simulation
and optimization of metal, composite, and ceramic cutting processes. The Computational Mechanics Engineer (CME) will
Hello,
Would there will be anyone like to share the experiences of using cohesive element in Abaqus. Recently I come across some trick proplems while using the cohesive element with bilinear cohesive law to model the slide of interface.
First,I don't know if there is a exact meaning of the stiffness, but it seems that it is related to the convergence. After many times of trial, I find I can only get a convergent result by using a couple of values. Nevertheless, I don't know the meaning of the stiffness.
I am working on the validation of CTOD.
