Hello,

I am new to the forum, and i have some basic questions for modeling with rubber using FEA. I have downloaded the load curve for the Natural Ruber 55pph CB product. I was able to download it to ecxel and transfer it to a .csv file. my FEA software is now asking for a mass density for this product, where can i find this so i can move on with my learning process? :lol:

The mass density is for rubber is about 1000 kg/m3 (i.e. same as water).
Note, the mass density is only used by explicit finite element simulations and when performing transient heat transfer analyses.

Best of luck,
Jorgen
