an epitaxial question
Hi, everybody, i had one problem. see the attached image.
Does anyone know how to get the strain function or strain energy of the perfect epitaxial film? Or could you recommend some textbooks or references about this topic?
Thank you
Complicated rotor dynamic simulation with ANSYS/ABAQUS or Madyn 2000
I have a system as in the Figure. There will have a radial load and a lateral load acting on the circumference of the drum which rotate at around 1000 rpm. I want to investigate the stability of the shaft at this speed. Can ANSYS or ABAQUS simulate this kind of dynamic simulation or is there any other software can solve my problem.
Thank you.
About estimating limit load using elastic-perfectly plastic material
Forums
Hello everyone. I have gotten this question for a long time.
As we all know, people are using elastic–perfectly plastic material to estimate the limit load for a specimen (structure). If the plastic zone is throughout the ligament as the load is increased, we say that the load is now reaching the limit load.
Combined EAM and Stillinger-Weber potential and Combined EAM and Tersoff Potential
We have combined the EAM and the SW and the TF potentials in one functional form. This functional form allows the modeling of metal covalent systems (M-Si,Ge,C,SiC) very efficiently allowing the study of large systems. The potential iscalled as the "Angular-dependent Embedded Atom Method".

(ii) 54th Congress of the Indian Society of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (An International Meet), to be held this year at the Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology, New Delhi, during December 18--21, 2009. Abstracts due by September 30, 2009:
Fully funded PhD scholarship in Vienna, Austria. Research topic is the behaviour of granular materials.
Fully funded PhD scholarschip for 3 years is available at the Institute of Geotechnical Engineering, Universität für Bodenkultur, Vienna, Austria. The research topic is the behaviour of granular materials. We expect a candidate with solid background in continuum mechanics and constitutive modelling. Some knowledge of DEM (discrete element method) will be a benefit. This project is financed by the European Commission within its Marie Curie Programme. There are some ten international partners in this project. During the project you will visit our partners in UK, Germany, Holland and France.
