This webinar will review different models in Ansys Mechanical to model polymers, from basic to the most advanced models. We’ll briefly review some test methods, then focus on the material models themselves.
This webinar will provide attendees with a materials science-based understanding of thermoforming, blow molding, and extrusion molding processes, including the root causes of common defects such as thinning, tearing, and stress whitening. Participants will learn a complete engineering workflow—from material testing and constitutive model calibration to predictive finite element simulation—to improve process optimization, part quality, and manufacturing success.
