Hysteresis in glass microsphere filled elastomers under cyclic loading
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), a type of silicone elastomer, is extensively used in various areas because of its low cost, chemical inertness and non-toxicity. However, pure PDMS is soft and brittle, which limits its load bearing capabilities. In order to overcome this limitation, we show that the mec...
