Essential tools for your finite element (FE) analysis! MCalibration® can quickly calibrate almost any material model. The PolyUMod® library is a plugin to your FE solver that contains the most accurate material models available!
In many important applications the material response is sufficiently non-linear that simple hyperelasticity or metal plasticity is not good enough. In these cases the PolyUMod library can be very useful since it contains a selection of the most advanced and accurate material models that are currently available. The PolyUMod library is easy to use and can give you a significant competitive advantage!
Clear description on how to properly analyze simple shear data. Also discusses how to properly perform simple shear tests and how to use the data in MCalibration.
Can friction cause viscoelasticity in a compression test? What is negative barrelling? This article discusses the theory of uniaxial compression testing
What is the Payne Effect, and how can it be modeled? All of that is covered in this tutorial.
