| description | A novel and promising approach for the prediction of the dynamic stiffness of hydrobushings is presented, combining Finite Element and CFD methods. The rubber structure of the mount is modelled in ABAQUS and the flow of fluid through the inertia track is calculated in FLUENT. The obtained results from the latter simulation are incorporated in the finite element code for the final stiffness prediction. The calculation is very sensitive to both rubber and fluid properties. The dynamic behaviour of rubber material has accurately been characterised with a new simple shear specimen in a forced non-resonant test. |
