Stress Relaxation
2012-07-10
I would like to seek comments on : Room temperature stress relaxation and governing mechanisms that contribute to the plasticity that occurs during this process. As, most of the available work on relaxation is done at elevated temperatures.

I have also attach papers by Prof Hart and Prof Krempl that did throw some light on this particular subject.
Buildings subsidence due to clay ‘shrink-swell': UK research highlights link to weather and consequences for insurers
Will home owners get that sinking feeling this summer?
Are we in for a summer of cracked buildings? It all depends on the weather. Research from the British Geological Survey (BGS) has highlighted the importance of rainfall and temperature on the incidence of clay shrink-swell, a precursor to subsidence, in the UK. For many, the cool, wet conditions we have experienced so far this summer may be just what is needed to keep their house in order.
Modelling continuum based constitutive for adhesive layers with finite thickness

I am new in ABAQUS.
Can anyone help me on modelling continuum based constitutive for adhesive layers with finite thickness in ABAQUS?
Is there is any tutorial in abaqus documentation about modelling the thick adhesive layer? I'm try to model thick adhesive layer in a single lap joint.
attached is the link of my model. can anyone teach me how to correct this model...
PhD and Postdoc Positions-Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Dallas
There are openings for PhD students and Postdocs within the "UT-Dallas Nanobiomechanics Laboratory".
The research topics cover: Nanobiomechanics, scanning Probe microscopy, bioinspired and biomimetic nanomaterials, nanomechanics of living cells and biological systems, nanomanufacturing and microfabrication. The topics are "Experimental" in nature, and prior experimental skills at the nanoscale are highly desirable.

As you may know wave propagation in circular cylinders is dispersive. As shown by Pochhammer, there
could be several different modes propagating in an infinite cylinder with
different wave speeds. I'm modeling wave propagation in a finite 3D circular cylinder in
Boundary Layer Formulation Model for Crack Analysis
Does anyone ever work with boundary layer formulation model for crack analysis using abaqus CAE? I really need some input on that. thank you
Can I use the Johnson-Cook method to capture and predict fiber failure of a composite material?

Is it possible to use a Johnson-Cook method to predict the fiber damage in a composite lamina? I am presently using ABAQUS for it. I want to capture fiber failure.
