Modeling Rubber and Viscoelasticity with Abaqus (2 day)

Rubber and resilient foam are widely used for a variety of applications, such as seals and gaskets, shock mounts, vibration isolators and tires. The mechanical and chemical properties of these materials allow them to act as excellent seals against moisture, pressure and heat. They also have excellent energy absorption and dissipation capabilities. This course provides a brief overview of finite deformations and the material models available in Abaqus which are used for rubber and resilient foam.

Description

Upon completion of this course you will be able to:

  • Use experimental test data to calculate material constants
  • Check the stability of the Abaqus material model at extreme strains
  • Obtain the best possible material constants from the available test data
  • Select elements for modeling rubber and foams
  • Design an appropriate finite element mesh
  • Model viscoelastic behavior in both the time and frequency domain
  • Use a user subroutine to define the hyperelastic behavior

Notes:

  • A Virtual Machine (VM) and the appropriate licenses will be provided for all classes. If you wish to use your own hardware, refer to the DS Certified Workstations and ensure the relevant products and licenses are properly installed prior to the class start.
  • The class may be cancelled or postponed based on enrollment, refer to the Refund and Cancellation Policy for details.
