TLDR
The resistance to tearing of a rubber vulcanizate is usually determined by loading in a specified manner a test-piece of the vulcanizer of standard shape, in which a notch has been produced, either in the molding process or by cutting the testpiece in a standard fashion.
Abstract
The resistance to tearing of a rubber vulcanizate is usually determined by loading in a specified manner a test-piece of the vulcanizate of standard shape, in which a notch has been produced, either in the molding process or by cutting the test-piece in a standard fashion. A wide variety of shapes of test-piece and notch and of methods of loading have been recommended by various authors (see, for example, Buist1).

Relative strain is a novel predictor of aneurysmal degeneration of the thoracic aorta: An ex vivo mechanical study.

TL;DR: In this paper, a machine learning technique was used to predict aortic growth rate over time using mechanical properties and baseline clinical characteristics, and increasing relative strain was identified as a novel independent predictor of aneurysmal degeneration.

An Interval Prediction of Chloroprene Rubber Crack Propagation Characteristics Based on Thermal Accelerated Aging

TL;DR: In this article , an interval parameter correlation model was proposed to more accurately describe rubber crack propagation characteristics by considering material uncertainty, and an aging prediction model was established based on the Arrhenius equation to determine the variations in the interval change of the fatigue crack propagation parameters during rubber aging.

Large elastic deformations of isotropic materials IV. further developments of the general theory

TL;DR: In this article, the surface forces necessary to produce simple shear in a cuboid of either compressible or incompressible material and those required to generate simple torsion in a right-circular cylinder of incompressibly material are derived.

Large Elastic Deformations of Isotropic Materials. VII. Experiments on the Deformation of Rubber

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the load-deformation curves obtained for certain simple types of deformation of vulcanized rubber test-pieces in terms of a single stored energy function can be interpreted on the basis of the theory of large elastic deformations of incompressible isotropic materials.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a model in which the crack is bounded by the atoms centred on the planes z =±½a, these planes being the boundaries of two semi-infinite elastic solids.

The free energy of deformation for vulcanized rubber

TL;DR: Load-deformation measurements on a number of natural rubber vulcanizates covering a wide range of hardness are reported in this paper, where the mean chain segment lengths obtained from swelling measurements are given.
