In this paper, a new test specimen for fatigue testing is described. Most of the durability tests
for elastomers are performed on dumbbell test specimen. Due to the load, the dumbbell …

Composite materials using natural rubber as the main matrix are popular these days
because of the wide applications of rubber materials in modern industries. Rubber materials …

Joints in concrete pavement are intended to provide freedom of movement in a concrete
slab relative to the volumetric effects. Changes such as this can occur owing to drying …

Rubber is used in many industrial applications, specially those need high damping
capability. Inpresent work, the effects of cyclic loading conditions on fatigue lifetime of the …

Fatigue behaviour of rubber is a very important characteristic due to its extensive use in
many engineering applications. In most applications, rubber is commonly subjected to …

The jointing of concrete pavement is intended to provide free movement within the concrete
slab. Joint sealing material, called a joint sealant, has evolved in recent decades to prevent …
