Fatigue Analysis of Flexible Joint Elastomers Combining Ogden Second-Order Constitutive Model with Cracking Energy Density

As the core component of the flexible nozzle on solid rocket motors, the flexible joint relies on the shear deformation of its silicone rubber elastomers to achieve a large vector angle, and the joint is prone to fatigue failure when working under high pressure. Aiming to resolve the fatigue failure...
