CREATE A MAT_OGDEN RUBBER

Generates an LS-DYNA MAT_077 (Ogden rubber) keyword block for hyperelastic rubber material modeling. Accepts Ogden model parameters — density, Poisson’s ratio, order of fit, optional Prony series for viscoelasticity, and frequency-damping controls — and emits a fully formed *MAT_OGDEN_RUBBER keyword string ready for deck inclusion.

Inputs

Label ID Type Default Required Description
Material Name material_name scalar MAT_077 User-defined label for the material card (string, e.g. ‘RUBBER_FOAM’); defaults to ‘MAT_077’ if left unchanged.
Material ID material_i_d scalar 1 Integer LS-DYNA material ID (MID) that uniquely identifies this card in the deck; defaults to 1.
Density rh_o scalar 1.5e-09 Mass density (RHO) in consistent units — default 1.5e-9 tonne/mm³ for typical rubber in an mm/ms/N system.
Poissons Ratio p_r scalar 0.45 Poisson’s ratio (PR) for the rubber; 0.45 is the default, reflecting near-incompressibility typical of elastomers.
Order Of Fit n scalar 1 Order of the Ogden strain-energy fit (N); controls how many µ/α pairs are used — 1 (default) to 3 are typical for rubber.
NV n_v scalar 1   Number of Prony series terms (NV) used for viscoelastic relaxation; set to 0 to suppress viscoelasticity, default is 1.
Shear Relaxation Modulus g scalar 1   Long-term shear relaxation modulus G (stress units consistent with RHO); provides the elastic baseline for the Prony series, default 1.
SIGF sig_f scalar   Limit stress SIGF for frequency-independent frictional damping (stress units); leave null/blank to disable this damping contribution.
REF re_f scalar 0   Use reference geometry to initialize the stress tensor
SGL sg_l scalar 1    
SW s_w scalar 1    
ST s_t scalar 1    
Curve Id curve_id1 scalar  
LCID1 lci_d1 vector  
DATA dat_a scalar    
Curve Id curve_id2 scalar   Curve Id 2
LCID2 lci_d2 vector    
BSTART bstar_t scalar    
TRAMP tram_p scalar    

Outputs
