Inflation of a Spherical Rubber Balloon — Shell and Membrane Version

Application ID: 19465


This version of the balloon inflation example demonstrates how the Shell and Membrane interfaces can be used to model thin structures made of hyperelastic materials.

The example is identical to the Model Library model 'Inflation of a spherical rubber balloon', except that the Membrane and Shell interfaces are used instead of the Solid Mechanics interface.

This model example illustrates applications of this type that would nominally be built using the following products:
