    Modelling rubber block in Abaqus

    Hi all, I am trying to model a simple block of rubber by applying a boundary condition to the top and displacing by about 420% it's original length (with three appropriately placed symmetry boundary conditions). Clearly I am modelling this using a hypereleastic material model. The uniaxial data...
