Our latest "how-to with @CodeAster" video shows how to define a composite shell and how to extract generalized forces and stresses at a given layer. Bonus: We use an example with a Cross Laminated #Timber Panel (#CLT) for all timber engineers out there! youtu.be/52INSrQ48iQ

Absolutely shocked to hear about @Protohedgehog's fatal accident today. A true #openscience champion and a really nice person. Here is his keynote talk at the 2018 @DARIAHeu event in Paris. #RIP Jon, and thanks for everything. youtube.com/watch?v=UEEcwRUg…

The question is not whether we will move to a system where data and code will be expected to be made available by default, but when the journals you submit to will start expecting this from you. Train yourself in computational reproducibility. RMarkdown is a great place to start.

Don't want to manually add DOIs to your references? Simply copy-paste your reference list in this tool and all (most) DOIs will be automatically added. doi.crossref.org/simpleTextQ… Thanks for pointing me to this @esthermaassen
