Dears,
I have a cylinder subjected to an internal pressure of 10 MPa, the cylinder diameter is 1400 mm. I am trying to model it in my FEMAP. I am comparing the average stress (TOP and BOT Y) with the stress that come from the formula
hoop_stress=pressure.Radius/thickness
The stress I obtained is similar with the one that is from the formula, but the deformed is not equal, it is crazy !
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.
A 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 stability of earth slopes of unsaturated soil. We expect a candidate with solid background in continuum mechanics. Some knowledge in constitutive modelling of soil and numerical analysis (finite element and finite difference) will be a benefit. This is a joint project with Stanford University, USA. The candidate will visit and stay in Stanford for some time. Your thesis will be co-supervised by Prof.
In this article the history of development of Saint-Venant’s Principle is reviewed, referring to the most important events concerning the principle as the historical clue, and the important works and results are evaluated; the view-points that Toupin Theorem can not be considered as a mathematical expression of Saint-Venant’s Principle and that the general Saint-Venant’s Principle does not stand, but modified Saint-Venant’s principles can be proved true are published and explained; the mathematical approaches for eslablishing modified Saint-Venant’s principles are summarized; the significan
I am coming back to India in the September 2009, and with only a month to go, I am thinking about joining likeminded individuals to open up a small consultancy group and see where it goes. We can also teach CAD/FEM side by side (during day time, and work on projects in the evenings/night - flexible times). Presently I am thinking of buying 1 Ansys Professional (which is very expensive, atleast to me) license. If you have other suggestions, please write to me in detail. I look forward to suggestions from the experienced persons.
In the micromechanics, the Eshelby tensor is always encountered. Now, i am trying my best to solve this kind of problem.
The problem confusing me now is an integration about Fourier integral.
If someone has paied attention to this problme, can we discuss together!!!
Thank you very much for your attention!!!
Dear Colleague,
the IV European Conference on Computational Mechanics-ECCM 2010, Solids, Structures and Coupled Problems in Engineering, organized by ECCOMAS, will take place in Paris, France, May 16-21 2010 (see the Congress website http://www.eccm2010.org/ for more information).
During this conference, we are organizing a Minisymposium entitled:
Fracture and Contact Mechanics for Interface Problems
With a generous gift from the Haythornthwaite Foundation, the ASME Applied Mechanics Division will award grants to students presenting their own work at the ASME International Mechanical Engineering Congress and Exposition (IMECE 2009). The grant will reimburse travel expenses and registration fees, up to $1,000 per student, for up to 10 students.
