/MAT/LAW35 (FOAM_VISC)
Block Format Keyword This law describes a visco-elastic foam material using Generalized Maxwell-Kelvin-Voigt model where viscosity is based on Navier equations.
This law is applicable only for shell and solid elements and can be used for open cell foams, polymers, elastomers, seat cushions and dummy paddings.

Comments
- In all cases, for shear and bulk
modulus calculation, the following value of the Young's modulus will be
used:
(1) - If
fct_IDf =
0,
(2) Where, - If fct_IDf ≠ 0, the pressure is read from curve.
- For closed cell polyurethane
foam, the skeletal spherical stresses may be augmented by:
(3) - The parameters Fsmooth and Fcut
allows you to enable strain-rate filtering. Three cases can be set:
- If Fsmooth = 0 and Fcut = 0.0, the strain-rate filtering is turned off.
- If Fsmooth = 1 and Fcut = 0.0, the strain-rate filtering uses a default cutoff frequency of 10 kHz.
- If Fcut ≠ 0, Fsmooth is automatically set to 1 and the strain-rate filtering uses the cutoff frequency given by you.
