Continuity of traction vector
I am looking for a source which has a good explanation of the pill box argument to prove continuity of the traction vector. If you know of such a source (url, book etc) please let me know.
Thanks,

Rolling Contact Fatigue in Ansys Multiphysics
Hello all,
I want to simulate Rolling Contact Fatigue in Ansys Multiphysics. I am
not sure whether we can perform this task in Ansys Multiphysics. Can
anybody help me regarding this? Is that possible to get S-N Curve as
result? Please help me..

Mortar FEM
Hello,
I am interested about the Mortar Finite Element Methods. I have a general idea about what it is about. I am interested in some text which can get me started. While looking for some books on the subject I could find 2 (one phd thesis in book form by Yang and a unpublished book from CRC press to be out by June 2011) and some on books on Domain decomposition methods. Since I dont have easy access to library facilties, I would like to know if there are papers whichcan get me started.
Thanks a lot,

On the sign of shear stresses in the Mohr's circle
Usually, the position of points in Mohr's circle is attributed to a sign convetion related to shear stresses. It is shown that points in the circle related to shear stresses generating a clockwise moment are in the upper half of the circle as a consequence of the position of principal directions, not due to a convention. I hope this note could help to explain better the use of Mohr's circle in plane stress states.
Course on contact mechanics with the CONTACT software
Dear all,
On Thursday 28th and Friday 29th of October 2010, we will organise a course on using the CONTACT software at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands.
The aims of the course are:
stiffness matrix for torsional beam
I would like to know how to write a stiffness matrix for a bar under torsional load. I would like to write a code in C++ to do this. I would like to know of any material regarding this.
Thanks in advance

input stiffness matrix to ansys
Hi everybody
Im working on a project about Finite element modeling of Contact. Im not allowed to use contact solving feature of ANSYS and i should use its Macro Programming. in this case i should read stiffness matrix from ansys, add some row and column to it and input it back to ansys and solve it.
I have two problem with this, first i dont know how to input modiffied stiffness matrix back to ANSYS..
