Accurate material models are needed to perform realistic virtual tests on any structure. In our simulations the following material behavior can be taken into account under large deformations:
- (Visco)-elasticity/plasticity
- Hypo/hyper-elasticity
- Rate/thermal dependency
- Damage and failure mechanisms
Modeling material behavior with any of these models requires parameters which can be determined by material testing and/or numerical analysis. For more information see our Mechanical Testing service and Homogenization service.
An example of our material modeling service is damage tolerance analysis of carbon/epoxy composite for aircraft industry:
