Abaqus Stress Relaxation (*VISCOELASTIC, TIME=RELAXATION)


Test ID

G-740

Description

This model is used in ABAQUS as an option of the *VISCOELASTIC model (TIME=RELAXATION TEST DATA). The TestPak includes measurements of relaxation moduli with time over a range of temperatures. Data are fit to a Prony series.

Included Tests

1x M-611 Stress Relaxation/Creep Compliance by Time Sweeps

Options

This test is performed for simulation performed in the time domain, for frequency based measurements, please see [G-742].

Samples

: 2 torsional DMA specimen

[details]

Application

Data are used in structural analysis simulations to calculate the relaxation of parts with time. This material model must be used in conjunction with *ELASTIC or *HYPERELASTIC. Additional TestPaks may be needed.
