Please mention the solver you are using for this analysis

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?

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,
