HI ALL


Actually I  am a Student of 2 year M. Tech. studying in S. V. National  Institute of Technology, Surat My name is Zoeb K Lakdawala. My topic for disseration is 'Implemenation of Fracture Mechanics on Pressure  Vessels". In my disseration I want to develop a code on fracture mechanics and compare it with standard Packages like ANSYS & ABAQUS.

Hello every body 

I am a novice (new one) on this web site and I just began, I am preparing my master on composites and I think that you have more informations than me on this subject my problem is that Iam in the coparative step between my results and the others.

my work is on the crack of composites mode II (sliding mode) I'm modelizing that phenomen with finit element to find the enegy of sustitution the problem is that I have not found any results by web and unfotunatly we have not books on this subject in my university.

Greetings all,

I am trying to use gerenalized maxwell viscoelastic model for polyimide polymer films (Kapton) in MSC Marc (or ABAQUS). I have never used the prony series representation of the maxwell model (hereditary integral approach). Has anyone ever used MSC Marc to incorporate the prony series relaxation to the material? or ABAQUS? Here is my game plan for doing this:

Molecular Dynamics

Hi,

I am a graduate student. I want to start learning Molecular Dynamics specially in respest to Continuum Mechanics. Can anybody give me some light about how to start or which textbook to start with?

 I want to use Large-scale Atomic/Molecular Massively Parallel
Simulator (LAMMPS) package (C++ version). Is there any group/person who is using this package? I need some help.
