The abstract of the paper is as follows (to appear in International Journal of Mechanical Engineering Education)

 A dynamic force-field analogy for analyzing organizational change is presented. Instead of

just analyzing the driving and restraining forces in the traditional force-field analysis, which is similar to

the static analysis in solid mechanics, the forces opposing change can be modeled in terms of viscous

or frictional forces that may be encountered. Some analogies between organizational change and the

Dear All,I am studying cyclic loading, Plasticity and metal ratchetting. All the publication related to these topics mention about backstress. Please somebody explain me what is the backstress. Could you please suggest me a reference to learn fundamentals?bandula

Hi, everyone ,,,I am a new user using ansys, i am working with pipe model. I build my pipe with solid 42 and solid 45 and meshing it. However,after running it,  I cant see the result summary at POST1 even in the output window the result showed. Any one have a problem like this? if yes..how to solve it ,,,thanks

Hi my friends,i am using Dracker prager plasticity model to simulate uniaxial compression (softening) of coal samples.in dracker prager, the shear criterion is linear, and the hardening type is compression. there is a table that i should fill out, this table composed of yield stress and abs. plastic stain. my question is:- how can i fill out this table by using the experimental data (stress-strain diagram for uniaxial compression test) ?? shall i convert these data using any equations??

Dear All,

I am wondering that is there any closed form solution for beam on elastic foundation in case which we have got two stiffness for the springs namely (axial and shear stiffness). The axial force are born because of the some loading conditions in the support.Would you please help me about this?

Thank you,
