TLDR
The experiments of Rivlin and Saunders and Gent and Rivlin are consistent with W having the form (33) in which C is a constant and f is a function of I2−3 only, which decreases monotonical....Abstract:

Observations of the Constitutive Response and Characterization of Filled Natural Rubber Under Monotonic and Cyclic Multiaxial Stress States
William V. Mars,Ali Fatemi +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the monotonic and cyclic behaviors of filled, natural rubber and explore the ability of hyperelastic models to capture the observed response, as well as recent developments in constitutive modeling of filled rubber such as the consequences of the Mullins effect.
Journal ArticleDOI
A new ‘Tailor-made’ methodology for the mechanical behaviour analysis of rubber-like materials: II. Application to the hyperelastic behaviour characterization of a carbon-black filled natural rubber vulcanizate
TL;DR: In this article, the constitutive equation for a carbon black natural rubber (NR) vulcanizate was derived using in-plane kinematics measurements using a speckle extensometer, from which the whole two-dimensional field of inplane displacements was obtained by a digital image processing.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simplified methodology to predict the dynamic stiffness of carbon-black filled rubber isolators using a finite element code
TL;DR: In this paper, the amplitude-dependent effect, known as the Fletcher-Gent effect or Payne effect, was used to predict the dynamic stiffness of filled rubber isolators using a finite element (FE) code.

On the origin of the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann law in the thermo-responsive shape memory effect of amorphous polymers
Haibao Lu,Weimin Huang +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, three thermodynamic constitutive frameworks for the shape recovery behavior in amorphous SMPs are proposed based on the Arrhenius, Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann (VFT) and Bassler laws, respectively, and incorporated with parameters (stress, strain and relaxation time) as functions of temperature.

A viscohyperelastic finite element model for rubber
TL;DR: In this paper, a finite deformation internal solid theory for viscoelastic deformations of rubber is reviewed and an axisymmetric finite element implementation of the theory is presented.
