Does anyone knows what's the theory of the element shell99 in Ansys? I tried to search in ANSYS Help, but didn't find anything. Is it kirchoff classical plates theory?
POSITION: POSTDOCTORAL RESEARCH FELLOW AT THE UNIVERSITY
OF AUCKLAND, NEW ZEALAND
Project Title: Advanced Modelling and Simulation of Closed Mould
Composite Manufacturing Processes
Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research position on composite manufacturing processes with the Liquid Composite Moulding (LCM) Group at the University of Auckland. The successful candidate will play a major role in developing the LCM group’s research into advanced composites manufacturing processes (including I/CM, Resin Infusion, VARTM, and RTMLight).
Hi All
I have just started my postgraduation in aerospace composites. I am new to FE of composites and required serious help in learning composite modelling. It will great if someone can help me in starting up. If you know any websites or books which have examples which I can go through to learn modelling of composites, please let me know. Thanks for your help.

The 5th International Conference on Fracture of Polymers, Composites and Adhesives will be held in the beautiful Alpine village of Les Diablerets, Switzerland, 7-11 September. Les Diablerets is situated 120 km from Geneva's international airport and is easily reached either by car or by public transport.
The full oral and poster programs, as well as registration details can be found on the conference website at www.tc4pca.elsevier.com
We are seeking to hire an outstanding candidate as a post-doctoral fellow to work on large-scale molecular dynamics of polymers and polymer composites. The project focuses on the characterization of the molecular mechanisms that govern the mechanical responseof these materials. The successful candidate will work in the Strachan group and will have the opportunity to interact with experimentalists and theoreticians in academia, industry and national labs.
A one year (renewable) post-doc position is avalaible at the Ecole Centrale of Nantes, France.
The research deals with the simulation of complex cracking patterns in composites using
the eXtended Finite Element method (X-FEM).
To apply : a CV + name of at least two references.
The full oral program is now available via the conference website at http://www.tc4pca.elsevier.com/index.htm. Register now to participate at this well-received single session conference held in the beautiful Alpine village of Les Diablerets, Switzerland.
Columbia University
Department of Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics
The Department of Civil Engineering and Engineering Mechanics invites applications for TWO tenure-track faculty positions to support a Department initiative in Sustainable Engineering. Qualified individuals are sought with expertise in either:
(1) Computational mechanics - with an emphasis on large-scale computing applied to multi-scale, multi-phase modeling of materials (from nano- to macro-scale), and/or mechanics and materials challenges in energy and/or the environment.
