Linear and nonlinear viscoelastic constitutive relations of cord reinforced elastomers

OSTI ID:5581497
The definition of effective constitutive laws of advanced composites is re-examined and the theoretical limitations of such definition are discussed for Elastic and Viscoelastic Constitutive Laws of Cord Reinforced Rubber Composites. The theoretical models for calculating the viscoelastic energy loss characteristics of these composites are then discussed. These characteristics generally defy closed form solutions and hence are obtained numerically. The numerical procedures and numerical results are discussed and compared with data obtained from an extensive experimental program.
