The stress–strain behavior of elastomeric materials is known to be rate-dependent and to
exhibit hysteresis upon cyclic loading. Although these features of the rubbery constitutive …

Within the scope of our recent approach for Efficient Unsupervised Constitutive Law
Identification and Discovery (EUCLID), we propose an unsupervised Bayesian learning …

Recently, the so-called Very High Bond (VHB in short) tape has proven to be an ideal
polymer for producing devices made of electric field-responsive functional materials, eg …

VHB 4910 is an important polymeric material that has potential use as electro-active polymer
in producing actuators. Such polymer, a member of the acrylic polymer group, is a very soft …

Silicone polymers have enormous applications, especially in the areas of biomedical
engineering. Ecoflex, a commercially available room temperature cured silicone polymer …

Ecoflex, a commercially available silicone polymer, has attracted considerable attention due
to its wide range of applications. The polymer has various Shore hardnesses that represent …

The main purpose of this paper is to provide an easy-to-use approximation formula for the
inverse Langevin function. The mathematical complexity of this function makes it unfeasible …

Approximants to the inverse Langevin and Brillouin functions appear in diverse contexts
such as polymer science, molecular dynamics simulations, turbulence modeling …

During cyclic loading, both natural and synthetic elastomers exhibit a stress-softening
phenomenon known as the Mullins effect. In the last few years, numerous constitutive …

A thermo-visco-hyperelastic constitutive model, in accordance with the second
thermodynamics principle, is formulated to describe the self-heating evolution in elastomeric …
