Responsibilities: You will closely collaborate with Schlumberger design engineers in US, Europe, and Asia. You will be performing FEA studies in technically challenging areas such as non-linear solid mechanics, metal plasticity, viscoelastic materials, shock, vibration, heat transfer, composites, and fluid/structure interactions. You will also need to present FEA results to various internal or external clients.

Crushable Foam Model Calibration

Submitted by student on Wed, 07/29/2015 - 16:12

Hi,

I am currently facing difficulties in calibrating abaqus crushable foam model with my experimental results.
I think I am bit confused about what values needs to be input in the model.
Right now my elastic properties are: E=400 MPa, v=0 (because its crushing)
In plastic under crushable foam I use compression yield stress ratio =1
and hydrostatic yield stress ratio =0.1.

Under crushable foam hardening card (Here I am confused), I convert the engineering stress to true stress using

(T.stress=E.Stress(1+E.strain))
