| Summary: | and a 5 term expansion of the Rivlin series called the and it is very important to be able to describe their behavior. Particularly, with advancements in computer data have been studied. The modeling started with simple describe elastomer behavior in the finite element codes. design and analysis is becoming more prevalent. However, Elastomers are becoming more prevalent in everyday products, Evaluation of two existing material models found in most FEA fit to each model's strain energy function. The effects of hardware and software, the use of finite element analysis in packages was conducted using experimental data gathered and Polynomial (N=2) function. stress states and progressed to some more general in nature. The two strain energy fimctions used were the Mooney-Rivlin there is no accepted and agreed upon method to generally using various combinations of material model and experimental |
