Investigating the stress relaxation of photopolymer O-ring seal models

TL;DR: In this paper, the suitability of additive manufacturing to produce O-ring seals was investigated and the O-rings were made by the PolyJet-Matrix technology using four different digital materials and then tested for relaxation properties under static and dynamic (sliding) conditions.

Optimization of the Cross Section of an Elastomeric Seal for Pneumatic Cylinders

TL;DR: In this paper, the cross section of an elastomer seal for pneumatic actuator pistons was optimized to minimize the friction force exchanged with the cylinder bore, using a finite element numerical model which takes material nonlinearities and frictional contact with seat and cylinder bore surfaces into account.
