Abstract
Abstract
An in-situ Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) method for soft matter developed by our group [Wu. et.al. 2022] encounters the problem of irregular samples, which significantly vary in shape and size in practice, therefore a standard sample “large enough” to ignore the boundary and size effects is necessary to determine the baseline of test and build the correspondence between this new method to classical mechanical tests. In this work, we use finite element analysis to approach the optimal size of a brick sample where the stress on the boundaries in three spatial directions are ignorable, and certified the results by testing a series of silicone gel samples on the in-situ DMA device. The stress-strain of tensile and compression are characterized. The material properties of gel are chosen to be close to the biological soft tissue. The size of 40mm(L)×40mm(W)×20mm(H) is determined to be the optimal result.
