INTRODUCTION Fluid pressurization in articular cartilage and meniscus has been successfully modelled in recent 3D knee models. Due to computational cost and convergence difficulties, these studies were limited to small deformations. The long term goal of the current study is to investigate the fluid pressurization under physiological loading and boundary conditions. Our small deformation result...

[Abstract] MSC NASTRAN User Defined Services (UDS) and PATRAN were applied to perform load-displacement analysis of ACCC, a new type of power cable with hybrid composites reinforced core. PATRAN was used to model the geometry of the hybrid composites core, and MSC NASTRAN was implemented to analyze the load-displacement behavior of the structure. MSC NASTRAN UDS subroutine UMAT was used to prov...

Ketika Rasulullah SAW. membangun masjid, baik untuk yang pertama di Quba' maupun Madinah, tidak hanya dimaksudkan sarana beribadah kepada Allah SWT semata. Lebih dari itu masjid juga digunakan sebagai mencerdaskan umat, berkomunikasi antara umat dan sekaligus pusat kegiatan secara positif produktif. Kondisi ini kemudian dilestarikan oleh para penggantinya (khulafa' al-Rasyidun). Namun seiring d...
