Hello everyone,

I am simulating impact on a part(similar to dash of a car) made of ABS plastic.

To run non-linear dynamics simulation, I need stress-strain curve data points of the ABS plastic so that the simulation will provide more accurate solution.

Please let me know, from where to get this data or other ways I can solve this problem.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

There are 1000's of types of ABS. You will need to get the data from the manufacturer of the specific grade you wish to simulate.


Politicians like to panic, they need activity. It is their substitute for achievement.
 
Seconded - it's a blend of three polymers in a wide variety of ratios and that's before fillers and plasticizers are added.
