I m using same material my friend we performed tensile test this material maybe it behave as hyperelastic material

Hi

Please mention the solver you are using for this analysis

I use Optistruct for vibration analysis

Hi guys !

For the TPU 95 A material, you can model it using MATHE card.

Normally, we perform an optimisation simulation in order to identify the right coefficients (we assume Neo-Hook, Odgen, ... behaviour law). And then for FEM simulation, we use what we identified (in the optimisation procedure) to run for example Tensil Simulation ...

for Poliproplene?

for Poliproplene?

Yes. You can use elasto-visco-plastic (Hollomon and Norton law or ...) behaviour law as well.

I joined an example of the modelling procedure.

Cheers,
