Dear Member, I am doing my research in plyurethane mateiral and planned to do simulation in Abaqus software for which i need some parameters. I browsed soo many sites and journal, unable to get. Please help me.
1. Inelastic Heat Fraction

2. Johnson Cook parameter

3. Plasticity

4. Film Coefficient.
Thank you

As a PhD student, you should be able to search polyurethane, and find that polyurethane is a class of polymers. Polyurethane is available in hardness as low as 25 Shore OO, and as high as 75 Shore D. The parameters are a function of the specific polyurethane chemistry and hardness.

It appears that you will need to get some samples of the specific polyurethane, test them, and derive the necessary parameters yourself.
