Course Objective
Upon completion of this course you will be able to:
- Understand rubber physics and fatigue crack growth behavior of rubber
- Use Abaqus/CAE to create and run models for use in fe-safe/Rubber
- Use fe-safe/Rubber to create complete rubber component fatigue analysis models Use fe-safe/Rubber to submit and monitor rubber fatigue analysis jobs
- Use Abaqus/Viewer and other tools to view and evaluate fe-safe/Rubber results
Not included is the Endurica CL command-line fatigue solver (see endurica.com for the Endurica CL classes).
Who Should Attend
This course is recommended for engineers with experience using an FEA solver and the fe-safe GUI. Some overview of the fe-safe/Rubber GUI is given, but users are expected to know how to use the Abaqus/CAE and Abaqus/Viewer interfaces. If you have any questions about your preparedness for the course, please contact simulia.training(at)3ds.com.
Prerequisites
- Introduction to Abaqus
- Introduction to fe-safe
