Elastomers are found in many applications ranging from technology
to daily life applications for example in tires, drive systems,
sealings and print rollers. Dynamical operation conditions put
extremely high demands on the performance and stability of these
materials and their elastic and flow properties can be easily
adjusted by simple manipulations on their elastic and viscous
properties. However, the required service life suffers often from
material damage as a result of wear processes such as abrasion and
wear fatigue, mostly caused by crack formation and propagation.
This book covers interdisciplinary research between physics,
physical chemistry, material sciences and engineering of elastomers
within the range from nanometres to millimetres and connects these
aspects with the constitutive material properties. The different
chapters describe reliable lifetime and durability predictions
based on new fracture mechanical testing concepts and advanced
material-theoretical methods which are finally implemented in the
finite element method for structural simulations. The use of this
approach allows a realistic description of complex geometrical and
loading conditions which includes the peculiarities of the
mechanical behaviour of elastomeric materials in detail.
Furthermore, this approach demonstrates how multi-scale research
concepts provide an ambitious interdisciplinary challenge at the
interface between engineering and natural sciences. This book
covers the interests of academic researchers, graduate students and
professionals working in polymer science, rubber and tire
technology and in materials science at the interface of academic
and industrial research.
