Optimising dynamic mechanical analysis experiments on soft rubbers for use in time temperature superposition

Rubbers are ubiquitous in engineering applications where they are often subjected to loading leading to high strain rate deformation. The strong rate and temperature dependence of rubbers and their composites motivates research into understanding their mechanical response under a wide range of condi...
