Abaqus Hyperelastic Incompressible (*HYPERELASTIC)


Test ID

G-720

Description

This TestPak permits the modeling of the deviatoric behavior of hyperelastic materials. It includes tensile stress-strain curves, compressive stress-strain curves, and a planar tension test. Data is fit to a Mooney-Rivlin model or the appropriate hyperelastic model.

Included Tests

1x M-205 Tensile Properties of Elastomers
1x M-212 Compressive Properties of Elastomers
1x M-220 Planar Tension (Shear)

Options

For thin sheet materials, a biaxial tension test [M-218] may need to be performed instead of the compressive experiment.

Samples

: 6 hyperelastic test specimens

[details]

Application

This TestPak is used to model a material exhibiting an elastic response up to large strains. It describes approximately incompressible, hyperelastic behavior. Materials such as rubber are approximated well using this model.
