Abstract
The paper presents a study on modelling a rubber cylindrical tube in the finite element method software. It begins with a definition of stored energy functions of considered hyperelastic models. The main part of the paper concerns the problem under the plane deformation assumption, which physically may accurately approximate a sufficiently long tube. It is modelled in ABAQUS using two approaches. The first one consists of a quarter of the cross-section with boundary conditions that impose symmetry. The other FEM model involves an axially symmetric stress formulation. Results are compared with values obtained analytically. The paper ends with an example of numerical solutions for a short cylindrical tube without plane strain assumption.
