PhD opening in computational mechanics at EPFL
I have a PhD opening in my group to start in 2017 on the multiscale modeling of fluid driven fracture propagation.
Interested individuals should contact me, and submit in parallel an application to EPFL doctoral school in mechanics
(see http://phd.epfl.ch/edme for more details about the mechanics PhD program at EPFL and the application process).
A brief description of the topic can be found in attached file.
Mixed assumed-strain finite element model for laminates
Fibre-reinforced plates and shells are finding an increasing interest in engineering applications; in most cases dynamic phenomena need to be taken into account. Consequently, effective and robust computational tools are sought in order to provide reliable results for the analysis of such structural models. In this paper the mixed assumed-strain laminated plate element, previously used for static analyses, has been extended to the dynamic realm. This model is derived within the framework of the so-called First-order Shear Deformation Theory (FSDT).
