Best Abaqus and Ansys material models in 2021 – thermoplastic elastomers
When you work with material models it is always important to think about the type and quality of experimental data that you have. I wrote
Discussion about why the MCalibration implementation of the Abaqus PRF model is different than the Abaqus version.
The theory behind the common Hyperfoam, Ogden foam, and Hill foam models. Also covers how to calibrate these useful models.
Detailed discussion about the Holzapfel-Gasser-Ogden (HGO) model. Features, theory, and calibration approaches are covered.
Discussion of how to select and calibrate a material model that can predict stress reduction after yielding.
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.
