Namaste from India.Jay Naik here. I am Post graduation Student doing Specialization in Machine Design.I am Doing My project in Master in area of" Design of storage tank" in One of the reputed company in Static Equipment Design.Any Idea on which Software(Fea or failure analysis) Design of storage tank is carried out?I have heard about AMETank and Ansys.

Secondly i am carrying out Literature review Present days.reading API 650 and other standards.Suggestion requires in this area.

Please guide me in proper manner.in which way i should carry out the project in systematic way.

Hi,

I am currently working on a FEM 2d plane strain elastic model in matlab. The next step would be to use a non linear constiutive law (Mohr-Coulomb). As far as I have been reading non linearities, are solved with iteration schemes. My question is how to compute the tangent matrix with the N.Raphson method? I have seen only case for polynomials, but not for matrices.

Regards!

Predicting fracture energies and crack-tip fields of soft tough materials

Submitted by Teng zhang on Wed, 09/02/2015 - 01:09

Soft materials including elastomers and gels are pervasive in biological systems and technological applications. Whereas it is known that intrinsic fracture energies of soft materials are relatively low, how the intrinsic fracture energy cooperates with mechanical dissipation in process zone to give high fracture toughness of soft materials is not well understood. In addition, it is still challenging to predict fracture energies and crack-tip strain fields of soft tough materials.

Postdoctoral Fellow, Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute: Modeling the dynamic failure of geological materials

Submitted by ndaphalapurkar on Tue, 07/14/2015 - 18:34

A new postdoctoral fellow position is available within the Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute (hemi.jhu.edu) at Johns Hopkins University. The position is in the area of experiments and modeling of inelastic deformations in geological materials (including damage and micromechanics of fracture) under impact mechanical loading conditions. The potential candidate will (a) assist in the development of theoretical and computational models for dynamic behavior and failure of geological materials, (b) closely interact with experts in x-ray phase contrast imaging to characterize microcr
