Abaqus Crushable Foam (*ELASTIC *CRUSHABLE FOAM)
Test ID
G-724
Description
Tests are performed in compression on foams that exhibit crushing with a Poisson's ratio that is essentially zero. A uniaxial test in compression is performed to capture modulus and a stress-strain curve. From this data both an *ELASTIC as well as a *CRUSHABLE FOAM model is created including the required hardening rule.
Included Tests
| 1x | M-210 | Compressive Stress-Strain, Strength and Modulus |
| 1x | M-213 | Confined Compression Stress-Strain (Hydrostatic, for rubbers) |
Options
Please note, this test does not include rate dependency effects. For rate dependency please select [G-725].
Samples
: 10 prisms
[details]Application
This model is useful for simulations that involve the use of materials that exhibit crushing behavior, especially useful for packaging materials. It is not recommended for recoverable foams.
