Good afternoon every one. <\/span><\/p>\n

I am working on a FE model in which I would like to reproduce a tensile test of the specimen reported in Figure 1. The material is hyperelastic and the experimental data that I have are the tension and compression test (points of Figure 2). I have settled the material model considering Mooney-Rivlin 9 parameters and the results of the calibration are shown in Figure 2 (it seems that the curve fit follow well the experimental data). <\/span><\/p>\n

Figure 2 – Material model<\/span><\/p>\n

The model is composed by solid element (Solid185). The specimen has been fixed at one section and a force of 100 N has been applied in the other section (figure 3). <\/span><\/p>\n

The problem is that the solution does not converge (Force criteria is not satisfied . Figure 4) and the errors are reported in figure 5. It seems like there is a lot of element distortion but, as shown in figure 6 and figure 7 (Von Mises and strain plot of the last convergence step) it not seems that there is distortion of those elements. <\/span><\/p>\n

I tried to understand what could be the problem but I don’t find any solution. I really appreciate any suggestion. <\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you <\/span><\/p>\n
