Introduction
Introduction
Elastomeric materials is mainly used for
hyperelasticity behaviour
This project primarily focused on the life-
system
Mounting for large internal combustion engine
in ship
Mounting of Instrument Packages in Aircraft
Engine mount
Problem Statement
Currently, there are no finite element software
Objective
To create subroutine/post-process
Calculate the number of cycles before the
component fails
To compare the result of simulation of rubber
