New Open Access journal: Case Studies in Engineering Failure Analysis
Read over 40 open access articles from Case Studies in Engineering Failure Analysis
Case Studies in Engineering Failure Analysis provides a forum for the rapid publication of short, structured Case Studies in Engineering Failure Analysis and related Short Communications, and will provide an essential compendium of case studies for practitioners in the field of engineering failure analysis and others who are interested in the ways in which components fail.

Buckling analysis of a imperfection sensitive cylinderical shell under compression
I have carried out eigen buckling analysis of cylindrical shell under axial compression under unit load using abaqus in model-1 and in model -2 i carried out riks analysis gave imperfection 0.2mm fotr shell thickness 2mm radius 0.25m,h=0.5 m after the 100 increment the the shell is subjected to load which is obtained from first buckling load in first mode here how to get the collapse load
write a command in ansys static structural
Hi every body,
I wonder if it is possible to write a *Do Loop in the static structural command snipper. I have to change a parameter in some substep of my solution, so I need *Do command. However, I am not sure if it is feasible to write a command in structural domain in order to change some parameters during solution.
I would be really appreciated if some one can help me with that.
Best Regards
Maral
Heating patterns in English homes: national survey vs common model assumptions
Hightlights of this open access article published in Building and Environment:
• Building stock models need to revise some of their assumptions on space heating.
• Weekends and weekdays are similar in their heating pattern and duration.
• Estimated heating demand temperature is slightly lower than the assumed 21 °C.
• Homes differ widely in their hours of heating and their demand temperature.

Dear all
i have question that i woud like to know about principle of putting monetary value on human to rduce risk and the principle of weighting the importance of risk , moreover is there any conflic between these principle

Crack length measurement
I am trying to measure J - integral from experiment. " Let my initial fatigue crack length is 6mm, then i did single specimen unloading compliance test on it. The crack legth increased to 8mm" If i want to model the same geometry in FEA. Now my doubt is that "what carck length should i take 1) Initial fatigue crack = 6mm 2) final crack length = 8 mm.................... Note: I need to model my CT specimen in FEA to correct my experiments :-)
