hello

am looking for a phd position in compututional mechanics i have a good backgroun in numercial simulation and mathematical modeling with MS in mechanical engineering i was working in many topic from material modeling (dammage ,metal forming ...) composite modeling and simulation (continue element of composite shell in high frequency,hommoginazation method crush simulation ,... ) i have a experience in biomechanic modeling and simulation

i have a good programming skills : fortran c++,python

Susmel-Papuga sharp controversy about multiaxial fatigue criteria

Submitted by Mike Ciavarella on Thu, 03/30/2017 - 11:29

I recently came across this sharp controversy between Papuga and Susmel on multiaxial fatigue criteria. Papuga accuses Susmel of "picking up" data that he likes from the literature, disregarding other data... And of having some constants in the criteria that are set a posteriori as fitting parameters. Do you know how this ended up? Anyone else partecipated to the debate?

Corin’s OPS™ technology now enables the surgeon to understand the individual motion profile of each patient before their surgery. This gives the surgeon the information required to identify, customise and deliver a personalised total hip replacement, specifically designed to optimise biomechanics and functional joint performance. This is driven by a simple imaging protocol, featuring Simpleware software, used to generate key inputs to simulate the unique way in which patients perform their normal everyday activities.
