The unique properties of rubber make it ideal for use in a wide
variety of engineering applications such as tyres, engine mounts,
shock absorbers, flexible joints and seals. Developing diverse
elastomeric elements for various structures involves numerical
simulations of their performance, which are based on reliable
constitutive models of the material being simulated. Numerical
modelling should be underpinned by a detailed experimental
investigation into the thermomechanical behaviour of rubber
components in operating conditions. The 9th volume of Constitutive
Models for Rubber, containing the papers presented at the the Ninth
European Conference on Constitutive Models for Rubber (ECCMR 2015,
Prague, Czech Republic, 1-4 September 2015), offers engineers,
scientists and postgraduate students an overview of recent
theoretical and experimental research on the behaviour, properties
and modelling of rubber. The contributions have been grouped under
to the following headings: Ageing, Friction & Abrasion,
Adhesion, Swelling, Continuum Mechanical Models & Numerical
Implementation, Hyperelasticity, Micromechanical Approaches,
Fracture, Fatigue & Lifetime Prediction, Mullins Effect, Strain
Induced Crystallization, Thermal Effects, Reinforcement &
Vulcanization, Design & Applications, Magnetosensitive, Ionic
& Electroactive Elastomers and Foams. The papers presented are,
however, not limited to these topics but reflect the complexity of
diverse and exciting problems in the modelling of the behaviour of
rubber.
