Abstract

The article deals with the mechanical tensile tests of the hyperelastic materials and its mechanical properties estimation using embedded magnetic microwires. Hyperelastic materials are specific because of the elasticity, which means that they return to their original shape after the forces have been removed. The article processes the issue of the structural analysis of the hyperelastic materials, where the methodology for hyperelastic materials laws together with its implementation in the Creo-Simulate software is described. After the comparison of the simulation results with the experimental results a very good compliance was achieved. The created methodology together with the application of the tensile stress sensors based on the magnetic microwires embedded directly in the conveyor belts mean a significant improvement of the manufacturing and operation of the conveyor belts.
