We have an exciting announcement about badges coming in May 2025. Until then, we will temporarily stop issuing new badges for course completions and certifications. However, all completions will be recorded and fulfilled after May 2025.

Does it make sense to use viscoelastic material in static structural since it requires the calculation of strain rate?

< 1 min read

Yes, in viscoelasticity, modeling real time is critical, so you can use viscoelastic material in static structural analyses. Transient analyses include damping and inertial effects, but if you have a situation where these effects are not important (e.g., constant load applied for a long time; thermal cycling applications), then viscoelastic materials are perfectly suitable in a static analysis.
