Here's to the start of something exciting!

A small archive of product-design projects and CAD models I worked on before and during my early engineering years.

Periodic boundary conditions (PBC) are commonly used in simulating mechanical behaviour of periodic representative volume elements of heterogeneous materials, such as composites, polycrystals, and foams. This article explores the concept of PBC and it's implementation in ABAQUS.

Voigt–Reuss–Hill and self-consistent approaches for estimating the effective elastic properties of textured polycrystals, with a MATLAB implementation for analysing elastic anisotropy.
