If strength increases does elongation also increase?

If I prepare a composite where the strength and elongation increases. Since the hardness increases with the increase in strength and increase in hardness led to increase in brittleness. As we see...

Can I use brittle material theory (max principle stress theory) for selecting brittle material in FEM?

If I use von mises theory (VMT) and max principle stress theory (MPST) for the same geometry the maximum allowable stress obtained from VMT is two times of MPST. Hence if i select the brittle...

fatal error

When I tried to energy minimization my system, I got fatal error as below. Fatal error: Atomtype opls_116 not found Although I've already added this line: ; include water #include "oplsaa.ff/spc.itp" to [molecultype] directive in my topology.
