ANALYSIS OF TECHNICAL RUBBER MATERIALS USING SIMPLE SHEAR DEFORMATIONS WITH ROTATING AXES
Abstract
In opposition to metallic materials, technical elastomers exhibit a variety of different material properties like nonlinearity or inelastic material behavior. The measurement of those properties and the determination of the material parameters connected to them often requires several different experimental setups. In the presented article the setup of an experimental rig is introduced, which allows the measurement of dynamic parameters, while at the same time the input signals preserve a quasi-static character. With the experimental rig it is possible to decouple elastic and inelastic processes within the material as well as to investigate consider new and yet highly relevant aspects for the prediction of the fatigue behavior of technical rubber parts.
