All materials are temperature dependent, but some more than others: metals tend to be crystalline solids and will melt at sufficiently high temperatures; in contrast, crosslinked elastomers are always solids. They can be glassy or rubbery, crystalline or amorphous. When heated to extreme temperatures, they... Continue reading
2023 marked year 15 for Endurica. If I had to pick one word to describe the past year, that word would be “vector”. Because magnitude and direction. 😊 We updated our core value statement this year. The first one I ever wrote as part of... Continue reading
There were several papers on fatigue life prediction for elastomers at SAE WCX 2022, but the highlight for us was this one from Automotive OEM Stellantis: “Fatigue Life Prediction and Correlation for Powertrain Torque Strut Mount Elastomeric Bushing Application” by Dr. Touhid Zarrin-Ghalami, Durability Technical...

The Tire Society held its 40th annual meeting last month with the theme The Virtual Tire. It has always been the place to see up and coming ideas, to see who is pushing into the frontiers of the field, and to renew professional connections across... Continue reading
“Is it validated?” – that’s often the first question we hear after introducing our durability simulation capabilities. And for good reason, given the weight that hangs on the hinge of product durability. Endurica takes verification and validation (V&V) very seriously. Let’s look at what that... Continue reading
