I just started using abaqus and i'm concerned with the behavior of my desing. I'm basically doing a simple Static non linear test on a block of polyprophylene and i have these material characteristics.

Elastic Modulus: 1300 N/mm2
Tensile Strength: 37 N/mm2
Density: 9 e-10 Tons/mm3
Possion: 0.41

Is this enough to simulate a good behavior for polyprophylene ?

Thanks for your help.

I think i go this down my results in stress are below the tensile strength by a factor of 3 and my strain is well under the yield strain

Does this meen than i can assum that the region im working in is linear?

have no much idea on simulation but there are many ebooks where you can find the polyprophylene linear and non linear test. i would suggest you to seek guidance on the same..
