DatapointLabs' TestPaks (material testing + model calibration + Abaqus input decks) for rate-dependent, hyperelastic, viscoelastic, NVH, and the use of Abaqus CAE Modeler to transform raw data into material cards will be presented. A representative from Idiada will present a case study explaining the use of DatapointLabs’ material data and TestPaks for simulation.

Thermoplastic materials are one of the largest categories of materials to be injection molded. Simulation of the injection molding process requires sophisticated and exact material properties to be measured. This presentation will discuss the testing required to characterize a material for use in SIGMASOFT, as well as the significance of material model parameters. Differences in testing methodology for amorphous and semi-crystalline polymers will be covered, along with step-by-step implementation into the software to produce a successful injection molding simulation simulation.

"Simulation of rubber-like materials is usually based on hyperelasticity. If strain-rate dependency has to be
considered viscous dampers are added to the rheological model. A disadvantage of such a description is timeconsuming
parameter identification associated with the damping constants. In this paper, a tabulated formulation is
presented which allows fast generation of input data based on uniaxial static and dynamic tensile tests at different
strain rates. Unloading, i.e. forming of a hysteresis, can also be modeled easily based on a damage formulation. We
show the theoretical background and algorithmic setup of our model which has been implemented in the explicit
solver LS-DYNA [1]-[3]. Apart from purely numerical examples, the validation of a soft and a hard rubber under
loading and subsequent unloading at different strain rates is shown."

Hyperelastic models are used extensively in the finite element analysis of rubber and elastomers. These models need to be able to describe elastomeric behavior at large deformations and under different modes of deformation. In order to accomplish this daunting task, material models have been presented that can mathematically describe this behavior [1]. There are several in common use today, notably, the Mooney-Rivlin, Ogden and Arruda Boyce. Each of these has advantages that we will discuss in this article. Further, we will examine the applicability of a particular material model for a given modeling situation.
