Samples of carbon-black filled styrene butadiene rubbers (SBRs) were submitted to
successive nonproportional loadings in order to define a general criterion for the Mullins …

Original constitutive modeling is proposed for filled rubber materials in order to capture the
anisotropic softened behavior induced by general non-proportional pre-loading histories …

Rubber-like materials are submitted to cyclic loading conditions in various applications.
Fillers are always incorporated within rubber compounds. They improve the mechanical …

This work thesis present a contribution to the modeling and understanding of filled silicone
rubber and soft tissues. Rubber like materials parts are designed using finite element code …

This thesis work presents a study of the mechanical behavior of soft materials submitted to
large deformations. In this context two types of materials were considered: rubber like …
