Rubber Characteristics as Input for FEA Simulation

In this session Dr. Ir. Kuno Dijkhuis from Elastomer Research Testing B.V. takes us through the rubber characteristics as input for FEA simulation.

Agenda Highlights:

• Unique Properties of Rubber
• Important Elastomer Properties for FEA
• Difference Between Tensile and Compressive Force
• Compression-Strain and Shape Factor S and Surface Condition
• Dynamic Properties of Visco-Elastic Materials
• Coefficient of Linear Thermal Extension
• Time Depending Material Behavior
• Final FEA Results

Viewing time: 15 minutes
