thank you all for the replies,
btrueblood, the material is Ecoflex0050 and I meshed it with hexaedrical elements. I acquired a load/unload cycle (10mm/min) data, then performed a material test on abaqus, the result is that Ogden model (N=3) is optimal. I te experimental test, I have the same...
Hi, I'm trying to model a force test. I want to extimate the reaction force resulting from a surface of 1mm width (made of rubber material) which is under pressure on a side and on the other one is encastred. What I want to model is a 1 second test. in this time, the pressure has to increase...
hi all, I'm using Abaqus 6.13 for a simulation of an insufflated balloon. I need to extract data from the simulation in Matlab or in Excel. I have a balloon wich deforms once insufflated with air under pressure. I need to calculate the area of the top surface of the insufflated balloon which...
Thanks for the help, but I made an important step towards the solution. I made a partition of my part to allow a hexhaedrical mesh. In such a manner the simulation takes less than 10 minutes to be completed, with optimal results. Just a question about timing. I need to simulate the isufflation...
Sure. I'm modeling a small device made of ecoflex. This device contains a chamber which have to be insufflated with air. When I model the static pressure, I use as step the generic, static one but the simulation doesn't work and an error message appears: with hyperelastic material hybrid element...
Hi, I'm using Abaqus 6.13 to model a Silicone chamber deformation with an internal pressure of 0.15MPa. The material is Ecoflex 0050 of which I have imported stress/strain curve and used Ogden to model the behaviour.
I used as step Dynamic explicit and added an amplitude at the load. The...
