Applications of the virtual fields method to the mechanical behaviour of rubbers under dynamic loading
Experimental techniques for measuring the mechanical response of rubbers under dynamic loading are developed utilising the virtual fields method (VFM), to inversely identify constitutive behaviour from experimental observations. Rubbers and other ‘soft’ materials are difficult to characterize using...
