Abstract
When analyzing incompressible rubber material with explicit method, the Courant condition is very important. The bulk modulus will become infinite number when solving the incompressible material. Then the critical time step becomes tremendous small number, so the analysis CPU time is not realistic. We report the relationship between incompressibility and numerical time step under the explicit method.
