...Leslee W. Brown; Lorenzo M. Smith A transversely isotropic fiber reinforced elastomer’s hyperelasticity is characterized using a series of constitutive tests (uniaxial tension, uniaxial compression, simple shear, and constrained compression test). A suitable transversely isotropic hyperelastic...

... in fiber-reinforced elastomers. In particular, we show that the rotation of the fibers may lead to the softening of the overall stiffness of fiber-reinforced elastomers under certain loading conditions. Furthermore, we show that this geometric mechanism is intimately related to the development of long...

...Feixia Pan Elastomer foam materials are shock absorbers that have been extensively used in applications of electronic packaging. Finite element modeling simulation plays an important role in helping the designers determine the best elastomer foam material and the best structure of a shock absorber...
