MATERIAL SIMULATION OF POLYMERS CONTAINING SPHERICAL STRUCTURES

Journal Title: TEHNOMUS - Year 2011, Vol 18, Issue 1

Abstract

One of the keys for successful polymer product development is proper material selection. It is recommended to apply tailor sized polymers in order to realize best product performance with respect to the requirements. Material simulation is a possibility to predict material data from modified polymers, e.g. particle filled polymer, for strength calculation purpose, which is eminent part of the product design process. A method to simulate stress-strain behaviour of polymers containing spherical structures is shown for TPU material.
