In this paper the elasticity theory for large deformations in the development of membrane theory, in order to investigate the linear and nonlinear dynamic behavior of hyperelastic membrane is used. A rectangular membrane composed of an elastomeric material, isotropic, homogeneous, incompressible and consisting of neo-Hookeano, Mooney-Rivlin and Yeoh models is considered. To model the membrane, the energy and work of external forces are used together with the application of the Hamilton on the Lagrange function. The Galerkin method is applied to obtain a discretized system of nonlinear Partial Differential Equations (PDE) and the Runge-Kutta method of 4th order is used to obtain its time response. Finally, the Brute Force and Continuation methods are applied to investigate the nonlinear dynamic behavior of the membrane. A parametric analysis is carried out looking to evaluate the influence of the material, geometry and initial tensions on the natural frequencies of the membrane. It is noted that increasing the size of a tensioned membrane, it is also increased the natural frequency for a given amplitude, and increasing the strength of a pre-tensioned membrane, the smaller the value of the frequency in relation to a range. Small differences are perceived in the behavior of the membrane for the three constitutive models of material, which are calibrated to represent the same material. Moreover, the main bifurcations of the analyzed membranes are of cyclic bending type, known as saddle-node bifurcation.<br>Elementos estruturais com grande capacidade de deformação como membranas hiperelásticas vêm ganhando destaque em diversas áreas da engenharia e têm várias aplicações na biomecânica, assim, o estudo do comportamento dinâmico de estruturas hiperelásticas é de grande importância visando minimizar os efeitos, como à perda de estabilidade e vibrações indesejáveis. No presente trabalho é utilizada a teoria da elasticidade para grandes deformações no desenvolvimento da teoria de membranas com o objetivo de investigar o comportamento dinâmico linear e não linear de membranas hiperelásticas. Considera-se a membrana retangular composta por um material elastomérico, isotrópico, homogêneo, incompressível e descrito pelos modelos constitutivos de neo-Hookeano, Mooney-Rivlin e Yeoh. Para obter as equações de equilíbrio estático e dinâmico da estrutura são utilizadas as energias e trabalhos atuantes, bem como o princípio de Hamilton aplicado na função de Lagrange. O Método de Galerkin é utilizado para discretizar as Equações Diferenciais Parciais (EDP) em um sistema de Equações Diferenciais Ordinárias (EDO). Para resolver esse sistema, utiliza-se o Método de Runge-Kutta de quarta ordem e utiliza-se o Método da Força Bruta e o Método da Continuação para investigar o comportamento dinâmico da membrana. É realizada uma análise paramétrica visando avaliar a influência do material e da geometria da membrana nas frequências naturais e nas tensões inicias. Constata-se que as bifurcações das membranas analisadas são do tipo Dobra Cíclica, conhecida como Nó-Sela. Além de verificar que quanto menor o nível de tração, maior será a não linearidade da curva de frequênciaamplitude da membrana e que há leves divergências no comportamento da membrana em relação aos três modelos constitutivos do material adotados.

Le pourcentage élevé de blessures dues à des traumatismes abdominaux survenant lors d’accidents de la route mais également la nécessité de détecter des maladies (l'hépatite virale, la cirrhose, le cancer etc.), ont conduits plusieurs chercheurs à étudier les propriétés mécaniques des organes abdominaux à la fois in vivo et in vitro. Dans tous les MEF de corps humain actuellement disponibles, les organes abdominaux sont caractérisés par des lois élastiques linéaires ou viscoélastiques linéaires, alors que ces matériaux montrent un comportement non linéaire hyper élastique. L’objectif de ce travail de thèse est de développer des modèles par éléments finis (MEF) robustes des différents organes de l’abdomen tels que le foie, le rein et la rate. Pour ce faire des tests expérimentaux sur chacun des constituants de ces organes ont été réalisés dans le but de caractériser le comportement mécanique de ceux-ci et de déterminer les propriétés mécaniques inhérentes à ces constituants. Pour caractériser mécaniquement ces différents constituants, des tests statiques ont donc été réalisés pour chacun des constituants du foie et du rein porcin à savoir, des tests de traction de la capsule de Glisson et de la capsule rénale ainsi que des veines hépatiques, des tests de compression et de cisaillement pour le parenchyme hépatique et le cortex rénale. Finalement la rate a été testée en compression statique. Les résultats expérimentaux obtenus ont été utilisés afin de caractériser les tissus par des lois de comportement de type hyper élastique, viscoélastique et hyper viscoélastique sous la forme de modèles d'Ogden, Mooney Rivlin et Maxwell et implémentés dans les MEF porcin et humain développés dans le cadre de cette thèse. Ces MEF ont ensuite été validés en regards de tests expérimentaux dynamiques in vivo réalisés sur modèle porcin et vis-à-vis de la littérature pour les MEF d’organes humains. Ainsi, les MEF développés dans cette étude sont les premiers modèles détaillés et validés et peuvent désormais être utilisés dans le cadre de reconstructions d’accidents mais également pour des applications biomédicales dans le but de développer des environnements virtuels de chirurgie, de planifier les actes chirurgicaux et d’aider les chirurgiens à l’apprentissage de gestes<br>The objective of this study is to develop robust finite element models of abdominal organs (viz. liver, kidney and spleen), by performing experiments on each organ’s constituents to extract the material properties. Understanding the mechanical properties of the organs of the human body is the most critical aspect of numerical modeling for medical applications and impact biomechanics. Many researchers work on identifying mechanical properties of these organs both in vivo and in vitro considering the high injury percentage of abdominal trauma in vehicle accidents and for easy detection of diseases such as viral hepatitis, cirrhosis, cancer etc. In all the current available finite element human body models the abdominal organs are characterized as linear elastic or linear visco-elastic material, where as the materials actually show a non linear hyper elastic behavior. In this study the organs are modeled for first time as hyper visco-elastic materials and with individual constituents of each (viz. the capsule and veins). To characterize the tissue, static experiments are performed on individual parts of the abdominal organs, like incase of liver, Glisson’s capsule and hepatic veins are tested under static tension where as liver parenchyma is tested under static compression and under shear at low frequency. In case of kidneys, renal capsule is tested under static tension and renal cortex is tested under static compression, where as spleen tissue is tested under static compression. The results of the these experiments are used to characterize the tissues as hyper elastic, visco elastic and hyper visco elastic materials in the form of Ogden, Mooney Rivlin and Maxwell materials. These material models are further used to develop the finite element model of organs for human and pigs. The developed models are validated by performing in vivo dynamic tests on pigs, whereas using dynamic tests data from the literature on human liver and reproducing the same with the numerical approach in the LS Dyna explicit solver. The developed models are observed to be robust and can be used for accident reconstruction as well for biomedical applications viz., to develop virtual surgical environments &amp; to plan surgeries or train surgeons

This thesis will be focusing on studies about the hyperelastic material method and how to best implement it in a FEA model. It will look more specific at the Mooney-Rivlin method, but also have a shorter explanation about the different methods. This is due to problems Roxtec has today about simulating rubber takes long time, are instable and unfortunately not completely trustworthy, therefore a deep study about the hyperelastic material method were chosen to try and address these issuers. The Mooney-Rivlin method (which is a part of the hyperelastic material method) is reliant on a few constant to represent the material, how to obtain these constants numerical and later implement these is suggested in this thesis as well. The results is the methodology needed to obtain constants for Mooney-Rivlin and later how to implement these in FEA software. In this thesis the material Roxylon has been studied and given suggestion on these constants as well as an implementation of the given material.<br>För en bra simulering utav hyperelastiska material, exempelvis för gummi, har detta examensarbete fokuserat på att undersöka hyperelastiska material metoder och hur man kan implementera det i FEA program.

In vielen industriellen Anwendungen sind Dichtungen im Einsatz. Vergleicht man den Preis mit dem eines Gesamtsystems, in denen Dichtungen verwendet werden, so sind Dichtungen verhältnismäßig günstig. Jedoch führt ein Versagen von Dichtungen meist zu schwerwiegenden Konsequenzen. Dichtungen sind komplexe Subsysteme und ihre Auslegung erfordert umfangreiche Kenntnisse im Bereich Materialmodellierung, Belastung und Versagenskriterien. Die heutige Simulationstechnologie ermöglicht einen parametrischen Workflow für die Berechnung des Verhaltens von Dichtungen mit den auftretenden Effekten wie nichtlinearem Materialverhalten, wechselnden Kontaktbedingungen und Flüssigkeitsunterwanderung bei Druck. Als ein führendes Simulationswerkzeug für diese physikalische Fragestellung wird ANSYS Mechanical für die Auslegung herangezogen. Desweiteren kann das Verständnis für das Produkt erhöht werden, was zu einer Verbesserung der Funktionalität und der Zuverlässigkeit führt. Versuchsdaten können als Spannungs-Dehnungskurven in ANSYS importiert werden, welche das Materialverhalten des hyperelastischen Werkstoffs mit traditionellen Materialmodellen wie Mooney Rivlin, Ogden and Yeoh oder einer neueren Formulierung, der Antwortfunktionsmethode, widerspiegeln. Robuste Kontakttechnologien beschleunigen die Simulation und Entwicklungszeit-Berechnungszeiten und gewährleisten ein genaues Verhalten des Simulationsmodells. Insbesondere bei Dichtungen ist die druckbeaufschlagte Fläche in 2D und 3D Anwendungen von Bedeutung. ANSYS berechnet diese automatisch in Abhängigkeit des aktuellen Kontaktzustandes. Diese benutzerfreundliche Unterstützung führt zu einer höheren Genauigkeit des Simulationsergebnisses, da ein manuelles Schätzen der Druckflächen entfällt. Mit einem parametrischen und durchgängigen Ansatz innerhalb von ANSYS Workbench, beginnend bei der CAD-Geometrie, über die Vernetzung, Material- und Randbedingungsdefinition und Lösung. können eine Reihe von Varianten in kurzer Zeit berechnet werden. Neben einem besseren Verständnis für das Produkt hilft dies dem Ingenieur Änderungen vorzunehmen, was zu exakten und aussagekräftigen Ergebnissen führt. Desweiteren kann der Einfluss von Unsicherheiten berücksichtigt werden, sodass der Berechnungsingenieur fernab von idealen Bedingungen robuste und zuverlässige Dichtungen entwickeln kann.

Breast cancer is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers affecting women in the United States. An ongoing objective of many research groups is to develop a biomechanical breast model for different applications, ranging from surgical outcome predictions for patients undergoing breast reconstruction surgery, to image registration for planning plastic surgery. Achieving the goal of developing a physics based biomechanical model of the human breast requires the determination of material properties of the various tissues constituting the breast. The objective of this thesis is to develop an appropriate hybrid experimental-numerical technique to enable the calibration of material parameters of skin for different constitutive models (commonly used for skin). The quantification of the material parameters thus obtained validates the bulge test method to be used in testing soft tissue specimens like skin. A bulge test device was custom-built for this work; it consists of a pressure chamber, two digital cameras, and a syringe pump as its main components. The syringe pump provides a constant flow rate of water into the pressure chamber and results in the bulging of specimens with a diameter between 45 mm and 80 mm. Three-dimensional Digital Image Correlation technique is used to obtain full field displacement measurements of the three dimensional shape of the bulge. Tests were performed on commercial rubber sheets of different thickness and on porcine skin specimens; in these tests, the bulge shape was measured at monotonically increasing and decreasing pressure levels, as well as during cyclic loading allowing determination of the deformation and strain fields over the specimen surface. In order to extract the material properties, a hybrid experimental-numerical method was used: the experiment was modeled numerically using the finite element analysis software Abaqus, imposing the commonly used Mooney-Rivlin model for isotropic materials and the Gasser-Ogden-Holzapfel model for anisotropic materials. A comparison between the experimentally measured and numerically simulated bulge shapes was used to determine the optimized material parameters under biaxial loading conditions over a large range of stretch levels.<br>text
