Accurate prediction of the retention force is an important issue in the connector design stage; however, it is not an easy task to accurately assess the retention force based on the authors’ knowledge. A finite element analysis is performed in conjunction with a self?coded user subroutine accounting for relaxation/creep behaviors of semi?crystalline thermoplastic polymers under various loading conditions in order to appraise the mechanical performance of the plastic base structure. Material parameters adopted in the constitutive model are evaluated by utilizing the automated design exploration and optimization commercial software. Applications of the developed subroutine with several damage criteria to assess retention forces of two electronic connectors were conducted. Retention forces predicted by utilizing the current constitutive model agreed fairly well with the associated experimental measurements. A dramatic improvement of the under-estimation of the retention force based on the approach commonly adopted in the industry is also demonstrated here. ? 2021 by the authors.
