Temperature Testing for Material Model Calibration
In this article I will explain what types of experiments are needed in order to calibrate a temperature-dependent material model.
In this article I will explain what types of experiments are needed in order to calibrate a temperature-dependent material model.
Stress relaxation and creep are useful experiments. This article shows that even short-term experiments of these types are great.
This article shows what experiments to perform on a thermoset in order to calibrate a continuum level material model.
This article explains what experiments to perform on a thermoplastic in order to get the required data for material model calibration.
This article explains what experiments to perform on a rubber material in order to get the required data for material model calibration.
This article examines the difference between simple shear, pure shear, and planar tension.
It would be very handy if uniaxial compression was the same as biaxial tension. But is it? This article has the answer.
The preload time is important when you analyze a stress relaxation experiment. This article explains why.
Material Model Calibration When you work with material models it is always important to think about the type and quality of experimental data that you
Smart mechanical testing is about how to extract as much info as possible using a small number of experiments.
In large deformations, simple shear is not so simple. This article describes how to properly test and analyze shear behavior.
