Residual stress measurement

residual stress

Hi Everyone,

 I would like to measure the residual stress imposed pattern through thickness of the plate by forming process (bending). Is it possible?

 I came to know that residual stress measurement through HOLE DRILLING METHOD offers only on the surface. That too, applicable only when residual stress imposed is uniform through thickness (like shot blasting process). If any one came across the experience of residual stress measurement, please throw some light in this regard.

 Thanks in advance

Creep Tutorials using Abaqus

My research area is modeling of creep in MMC. I am trying to use Abaqus for this purpose but I am unable to find any tutorial that can provide me some help that how to use creep module provided in Abaqus. Will any body can help me by providing some tutorial related to that topic. It will be highly apprecioated.

Here is an interesting link I came across while searching for the Feynman lectures -- Project Tuva.

http://research.microsoft.com/apps/tools/tuva/

It provides each of Prof. Feynman's seven lectures delivered at Cornell as a part of the Messenger lecture series. This format of posting lectures by Microsoft is absolutely amazing. I hope more such lectures especially videos of keynote lectures in leading conferences and congresses can be made available online.

modelling of rectangular composite plates using ANSYS

Submitted by sharma_avadesh on

I have to analyse the carbon/epoxy composite laminate in ANSYS,  to determine the natural frequency of rectangular composite plates. The plate is simply supported . I  am not able to model the composite lay up with the correct orientation of the fibre. so any body have the step by step procedure for modelling the composite lay up in ANSYS and how to determine natural frequencies  please give it to me on my e-mail:  sharma_avadesh [at] yahoo.com

Two-point Tensors

Submitted by Mubeen on

I am confused about the use of two-point tensors in elasticity. The deformation tensor F and first PK tensor are two point tensors, and the "two-point" property arises from use of two different Coordinate System When a continuum body is deformed, why it is necessary to move the Coordinate System as well? (or alternatively, why the coordinate system is attached to the body itself??, isn't it possible to use a general coordinate system which can represent the deformations and also account for the rigid body rotations of the continuum body?).
