2. Modelling of the Fletcher-Gent effect and obtaining hyperelastic parameters for filled elastomers
Abstract : The strain amplitude dependency , i.e. the Fletcher-Gent effect and Payne effect, and the strain rate dependency of rubber with reinforcing fillers is modelled using a modified boundary surface model and implemented uniaxially. READ MORE
