Hi,

I am working on short glass fibre reinforced composites.

Is there a material model which can predict the fatigue behaviour of the composite structure at high temperature.

Thank you

hi,i have been doing non-linear buckling analysis using STATIC RIKs method

my model specification:   length:65 metre, dia=2.85metre,thickness=0.38meter 

 and i am having the following doubts:

 1.i have done Eigen value buckling analysis first and got the mode values..but for getting the mode shapes which load value i have to apply????(whether calculated euler buckling load value)

2.i have given imperfection as 0.0038  i.e..,10% of thickness value is it correct????

Bringing together 18 chapters written by leading experts in dynamical systems, operator theory, partial differential equations, and solid- and fluid mechanics, this book presents state-of-the-art approaches to a wide spectrum of new and challenging stability problems.

The solution of linearly elastic and orthotropic solid bodies is very complicated, thus a new element model for solving linearly elastic and orthotropic bodies is presented by using the generalized Hooke's law and the superposition principle. This new model is a simple truss consisting of some bars, and then the solution of orthotropic body becomes simple. Furthermore, this new model reveals the physical mechanism of a solid body under the action of applied forces.

Based on the generalized Hooke's law and the superposition principle, a new element model of linearly elastic and orthotropic solid bodies is presented. Furthermore, the paper provides a new method for analyzing solid bodies. This new element is a simple truss, and a solid body is considered to consist of many such truss elements, then the solid body becomes a truss structure. Thus the internal forces and displacements of the solid body can be obtained by calculating this truss structure.

Mathematical provability , then classication, of Saint-Venant's Principle are discussed. Beginning with the simplest case of Saint-Venant's Principle, four problems of elasticity are discussed mathematically. It is concluded that there exist two categories of elastic problems concerning Saint-Venant's Principle: Experimental Problems, whose Saint-Venant's Principle is established in virtue of supporting experiment, and Analytical Problems, whose Saint-Venant's decay is proved or disproved mathematically, based on fundamental equations of linear elasticity.

Dear Colleagues,

 I am glad to share my papers on MD simulation and multiscale moldeling of polymer based nanocomposites.

Hi,

I started a research project on Impact problem of nonlinear beam (all kind of nonlinearity). Has anyone studied on this issue? Please give me some reference or direction. It will be a great help. Thank a lot

 Best regards.
