The hyper-elastic material has been used gradually and its range was extended all over the industry. The performance prediction of hyper-elastic material was required not only experimental methods but also numerical methods.

Using hyper-elastic material has been increased gradually and its range was extended all over the industrial. In addition, the performance prediction of this material was required not only experimental methods like metal material but also numerical methods. In this study, we presented the process how to use numerical method for hyper-elastic material and then, it was applied for seat-ring of butterfly valve by using this process. The finite element analysis was executed to evaluate the mechanical characteristics of hyper-elastic material and search the optimum model considered conditions and features. According to that model the coefficient was obtained by using Contact analysis.

In this work, effects of hyper-elastic rubber material properties on the indentation load-deflection curve and subindenter deformation are first examined via [mite element (FE) analyses. An optimal data acquisition spot is selected, which features maximum strain energy density and negligible frictional effect. We then contrive two normalized functions. which map an indentation load vs. deflection curve into a strain energy density vs. first invariant curve. From the strain energy density vs. first invariant curve, we can extract the rubber material properties. This new spherical indentation approach produces the rubber material properties in a manner more effective than the common uniaxial tensile/compression tests. The indentation approach successfully measures the rubber material properties and the corresponding nominal stress.strain curve with an average error less than 3%.

Recently, the application of non-steel materials in ships and offshore plants is increasing because of the development of various nonlinear materials and the improvement of performance. Especially, hyper-elastic materials, which have a nonlinear stress-strain relationship, are used mainly in marine plant structures or ships where impact relaxation, vibration suppression, and elasticity are required, while elasticity must be maintained, even under high strain conditions. In order to simulate and evaluate the behavior of the hyperelastic material, it is very important to select an appropriate material model according to the strain of the material. This study focused on the selection of material models for hyperelastic materials, such as rubber used in the marine and offshore fields. Tension and compression tests and finite element simulations were conducted to compare the accuracy of the nonlinear material models due to variations in the stretch ratio of hyper-elastic material. Material coefficients of nonlinear material models are determined based on the curve fitting of experimental data. The results of this study can be used to improve the reliability of nonlinear material models according to stretch ratio variation.

본 연구에서는 먼저 유한요소해석을 통해 주요 물성계수들이 압입시 하중-변위 곡선형상에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또한 유한요소 압입해석을 통해 마찰계수의 영향으로 하중-변위 곡선, 시편하부의 단위부피당 변형에너지 및 변형률 주불변량이 바뀌지 않는 최적 압입깊이와 시편하부지점을 선정하였다. 이러한 관찰을 통해 하나의 요소에서 얻어지는 단위부피당 변형 에너지와 변형률 주불변량을 하중-변위 데이터와 모사 시킬 수 있는 무차원 함수를 얻을 수 있었으며, 이 과정에서 예측된 물성계수를 바탕으로 공칭응력-공칭변형률 곡선을 얻을 수 있었다.

이 연구는 대표적인 면진장치인 납고무베어링(LRB)의 유한요소모델의 신뢰성을 향상시키기 위하여 주재료인 고무의 재료특성에 대하여 연구하였다. 고무는 일반적인 탄성재료와는 달리 대변형, 비선형특성을 가지는 초탄성 재료이다. 본 연구에서는 고무를 초탄성 재료로 가정하고 그의 재료특성을 변형률에너지함수로 표현하여 LRB의 유한요소모델을 개발하였다. 연구를 위하여 여러 변형률에너지함수 중 몇 가지를 선별하고 이를 이용하여 고무의 재료특성을 예측하였다. 변형률에너지함수를 이용하여 결정된 고무의 재료특성과 표준적인 납의 재료특성을 이용하여 LRB의 유한요소모델을 개발하고, 수평방향과 수직방향의 힘-변위 관계를 해석하였다. LRB의 유한요소모델을 통하여 해석으로 예측한 수평과 수직방향 강성을 실험결과와 비교함으로써 개발된 유한요소모델의 적합성을 검증하였다.

In this study, to achieve the optimal conditions for mechanical hyper-fine pattern fabrication process, deformation behavior of the materials during indentation was studied with numerical method by ABAQUS S/W. Polymer (PMMA) and brittle materials (Si, Pyrex glass) were used as specimens, and forming conditions to reduce the elastic recover and pile-up was proposed. The indenter was modeled a 3D rigid surface. Minimum mesh sizes of specimens are 1-10nm. Comparison between the experimental data and numerical result demonstrated that the finite element approach is capable of reproducing the loading-unloading behavior of a nanoindentation test. The result of the investigation will be applied to the fabrication of the hyper-fine pattern.

A second order nonlinear ordinary differential equation is obtained by solving the initial-boundary value problem of a class of elas-todynamics equations, which models the radially symmetric motion of a incompressible hyper-elastic solid sphere under a suddenly applied surface tensile load. Some new conclusions are presented. All existence conditions of nonzero solutions of the ordinary differential equation, which describes cavity formation and motion in the interior of the sphere, are presented. It is proved that the differential equation has singular periodic solutions only when the surface tensile load exceeds a critical value, in this case, a cavity would form in the interior of the sphere and the motion of the cavity with time would present a class of singular periodic oscillations, otherwise, the sphere remains a solid one. To better understand the results obtained in this paper, the modified Varga material is considered simultaneously as an example, and numerical simulations are given.

This paper is the first one of two-parted research efforts focusing on the modeling of rubber pad forming process. The rubber pad, driven by the pressurized fluid during the forming process, pushes the sheet metal to solid tool half and forms a part to final shape. In this part of the paper, a numerical procedure for the FE analysis of the rubber pad deformation is presented. The developed three-dimensional FE model is based on the total Lagrangian description of rubber maerial characterized by nearly incompressible hyper-elastic behavior under a large deformation assumption. Validity of the model as well as effects of different algorithms corresponding to incompresibility constraints and time integration methods on numerical solution responses are also demonstrated.
