Abstract
The article discusses the use of software for the nonlinear analysis of hyperelastic material used in the soft capture mechanisms for robots working with agricultural products. Soft capture elements are made of rubber-like materials. Such materials have the ability to retain their elastic properties at high strain. The research reviewed various data resources, particularly, the reports on the development of soft grip elements for robots used to work with agricultural products. Internet resources were also studied to analyse the availability of data on the software for the nonlinear analysis of hyperelastic materials. The review has found that Abaqus, Ansys, and Comsol multiphysics software packages are used for the nonlinear analysis of hyperelastic elements. Abaqus is the most commonly used tool, although the programme training materials are not easily accessible. The Ansys software package ranks second with the highest data availability in the Internet. The review has found that the number of studies into Comsol multiphysics programme is the smallest though the availability of information on the tool in Internet sources ranks second.
