Abstract

This paper is deals with compression testing for the purpose of identify loading and unloading curves of polyurethane foam materials. Obtained testing results of foam are used for a mathematical description of the material behaviour. The mathematical description is applied to a finite-element analysis for the purpose of simulation and comparison with the actual compression test.
