Research on Mechanical Characteristics of Plastic Materials in Automobile Manufacturing

Plastic materials are widely used in automobile manufacturing, and they have different mechanical characteristics at high and low temperature, which has a major influence on automobile safety. This paper mainly studies the relationship between elastic modulus and yield strength of plastic materials at high and low temperature, in order to predict the elastic modulus by the yield strength. On this basis, the values of the parameter of the constitutive model will be predicted to obtain the constitutive equation. The method meeting the precision is validated by the experiments. The method decreases experimental working, and provides technical support for product development as well.
