Material properties and temperature

Submitted by ghayth81 on

Hi All,



 As you know the material properties such as Modulus of Elasticity, Poisson's ratio and Shear Modulus are temperature dependent. Especially, the polymer material as it shows significant reduction in strength and stiffness with temperature increasing.



I did a tensile test on adhesive material at different temperatures. The results showed that the E-modulus is reduced about 70% at 60 °C and the Poisson’s ratio increased also.



I was wondering if Abaqus take in the calculation the reduction in the material properties in thermal loading.



I hope you will answer my question asap. It would be very helpful if you send any documents or papers explain that.



 



Many thanks



Ghayth
