SIMULIA – Modeling rubber and viscoelasticity with ABAQUS (MRUB)

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 constant from the available test data 

- Select elements for modeling rubber and foams 

- Design an appropriate finite element mesh. Model viscoelasticity behavior in both the time and frequency domain 

- Use a user subroutine to define the hyperelastic behavior

Engineers with experience using ABAQUS.

This course provides a brief overview of finite deformations and the material models used for rubber and resilient foam.

Training available on site or at KEONYS training centres.
