I use ANSYS APDL with code for my shaft with two coating layers(interlayer and coating layer). I already analysis stress of shaft with Ansys. the result is ok and i exported to .RST file. But , when i input my shaft to Ncode, I can't find the interlayer and coating layers.I think this shaft have 3 part(subtrate, interlayer, coating layer)

Yield behaviour of trabecular bone

Submitted by Lee Margetts on

A recently published paper  "Evaluating the macroscopic yield behaviour of trabecular bone using a nonlinear homogenisation approach" links the micromechanics of bone to its macroscopic behaviour. The paper may be of interest to colleagues on this forum. The abstract is provided below.

Abstract:

Fracto-emission in lanthanum-based metallic glass microwires under quasi-static tensile loading

Submitted by Yang Lu on

Plastic deformation in metallic glasses is highly localized and often associated with shear banding, which may cause momentary release of heat upon fracture. Here, we report an explosive fracture phenomenon associated with momentary (∼10 ms) light emission (flash) in Lanthanum-based (LaAlNi) metallic glass microwires (dia. ∼50 μm) under quasi-static tensile loading.

Damage plasticity model for concrete failure CDPM2

Submitted by grassl on

Those involved in the modelling of the failure of plain/reinforced concrete using damage and plasticity might be interested in our webpage

http://petergrassl.com/Research/DamagePlasticity/CDPMLSDYNA/index.html

which we have created to support our concrete damage plasticity model CDPM(2) in LS-DYNA. You can find there a number of example input files, reports and our implementation of the model in the form of a user subroutine.
