I'm doing Mtech project on Finite Element Modeling On Polymer Nanocomposite with Clay Nanofiller. For that am using ABAQUS software, so i need some information regarding that ABAQUS software, how to do finite element modeling of nanocomposites with nanofiller and How to prepare a code distrubution in the plate like particales in the polymer matrix with ABAQUS software. So please can any give information.
A postdoctoral associate position at MIT is available immediately,
focused on the analysis and development of multifunctional thermal
management structures, by using theoretical and atomistic multiscale
modeling and simulation. This project specifically involves calculations
of thermal and mechanical properties of graphene based metal- and
polymer nanocomposites, with a focus on various aspects such as
interfacial transport properties, tunability, mutability and phonon
engineering. Additional aspects of the project relate to the general
Hello,
(for completing R. Huang's post : node/7396).
A few years ago, some colleages (from Italy, UK and Brazil) and I proposed some comparisons of the behavior of cohesize zone models. This was presented during ECCM 2004. The paper is attached.
Hi,
I am working on effects of Blast Loading in sandwich composites using Abaqus. I want to incorporate Cohesive behaviour at the interface of the two materials in the sandwich composite structure i am analysing.
Hi everybody,
do you know where I can find some informations about the relation
between particle size and critical normal stress at the interface particle /matrix
for a particle embedded in a matrix?
I read the Chen's article 'Size effect of particles on the damage dissipation in nanocomposites'
but this article deals with spherical particles. I am studying clay/matrix nanocomposites and I would like to
calculate the relation between clay size and debonding stress.
Thanks,
Cecilia
I am Cecilia. In 2007 I graduated in mechanical engineering at the University of Cagliari (Sardinia, Italy).
During the degree courses I took several classes on structural mechanics, including, Mechanics of Composite Materials,
Fracture Mechanics, Finite Element Analysis (with Ansys and Abaqus).
Now I am a PHD student at the Univesity of Cagliari and this is the aim of my research:
Finite element modelling of polymer-clays nanocomposites with
Hi,
I am simulating failure of concrete in tension and compression on a concrete representative element volume. I have modeled mortar matrix and aggregate (inclusion) separately i.e my model consists of two material and assumed them as perfectly bonded. My question is, if I add interface zone between matrix and inclusion how will it effect my overall failre or can I neglect inerface.
With Warm Regards

Following a previous effort published in MRS Proceedings, we wrote a journal article of the same title, with more numerical results. While the main conclusions stay the same, a few subtle points are noted in this paper.
Many people here are interested in the behaviours of interfaces.
I am interested in having a list of the cohesive energy for interfaces between different materials, such as polymer/ceramics, polymer/metals, polymer/polymer, metals/ceramics, biological interfaces, carbon nanotube/polymer matrix, etc.
So, what is the magnitude of the cohesive energy per unit area of the interface you are studying?
