Abstract
The basic problem in the finite element analysis of parts made of hyperelastic materials is the identification of mathematical material model coefficients. Furthermore, selection of a suitable mathematical hyperelastic material model may not be straightforward. In this study, a design methodology is presented for hyperelastic suspension jounce bumpers. The commonly used traditional trial-and-error method for jounce bumper design results in high mould costs for prototype production and prolongs the time required. The design methodology presented in this study involves a critical examination of material testing procedures, material model selection, and coefficient identification. The identified coefficients are verified through finite element analysis and actual test results.
