Large Isotropic Elastic Deformations: On a Comprehensive Model to Correlate the Theory and Experiments for Incompressible Rubber-Like Materials

Afshin Anssari-Benam

Summary: A comprehensive model is proposed in this paper for the finite deformation of incompressible isotropic rubber-like materials. The model captures the mechanical behavior of different types of rubber-like materials and describes their constitutive behavior under different deformation modes. It is shown that many existing models are special cases of this model and the model provides better predictions compared to separable functions.

A new micro-macro transition for hyperelastic materials

Lin Zhan et al.

Summary: Many classic hyperelastic models cannot accurately predict the stress responses of soft materials in complex loading conditions. We propose a new micro-macro transition approach integrated into a full network framework, which successfully captures the stress responses in multi-axial deformation modes for soft materials. We further develop a two-parameter hyperelastic model that exhibits greatly improved predictive ability for complex loading types compared to other existing models.

Multiplicative, Non-Newtonian Viscoelasticity Models for Rubber Materials and Brain Tissues: Numerical Treatment and Comparative Studies

Alexander Ricker et al.

Summary: Elastomers and soft biological tissues share similar mechanical properties and can be modeled using the same rheological framework. This study examines non-Newtonian viscosity functions for these materials and identifies suitable functions through fitting experiments. The numerical aspects of viscoelasticity are also addressed, resulting in four equivalent formulations that employ different internal variables. Numerical investigations suggest the superiority of two of these formulations, especially for complex finite element simulations.

An efficient mode-of-deformation dependent rate-type constitutive relation for multi-modal cyclic loading of elastomers

K. Srikanth et al.

Summary: We developed a 3D nonlinear viscoelastic model for filled elastomeric solids and achieved accurate predictions for multiple deformation modes and strain rates using a limited number of parameters. Through analysis, we reduced the parameters and introduced viscosity that depended on the mode of deformation rate into the constitutive relations. The model successfully captured the complex behavior of different elastomer materials, and the implementation in Abaqus/Standard yielded good agreement with experimental data.

Afshin Anssari-Benam et al.

Summary: A new dissipation function Wv is proposed to capture the rate-dependent mechanical behavior of the semilunar heart valves. The function is derived from experimental data and accurately models the rate-dependent features of the valves. The function is recommended for application to heart valves and other soft tissues that exhibit similar rate-dependent behavior.

Systematic Fitting and Comparison of Hyperelastic Continuum Models for Elastomers

Alexander Ricker et al.

Summary: Hyperelasticity is a common modeling approach used to replicate the nonlinear mechanical behavior of rubber materials at finite deformations. This manuscript provides an overview of suitable hyperelastic models for nine widely used rubber compounds, including both isochoric and volumetric behavior. It discusses the careful preparation of experimental data, including proper handling of preload in tests and verification of data consistency. The parameter identification process is also studied, including different formulations of the cost function and their effect on fitting results. Ultimately, this contribution serves as a guideline for experimental characterization, data processing, model selection, and parameter identification for both existing and new materials.

Modelling brain tissue elasticity with the Ogden model and an alternative family of constitutive models†

Afshin Anssari-Benam et al.

Summary: The Ogden model is often used in the study of brain tissue deformation, but it has been found to have limitations in certain applications. This study proposes a family of models that provide better fit to experimental data and are not affected by testing artefacts. The findings suggest the need for further refinement of deformation models for brain tissue.

A generalised neo-Hookean strain energy function for application to the finite deformation of elastomers

Afshin Anssari-Benam et al.

Summary: The new model proposed for the finite deformation of incompressible elastomers is simple with only two parameters, mu and N, derived within the classical framework of statistical mechanics. It effectively captures the deformation behaviors of each elastomer specimen using a single set of parameter values and outperforms the celebrated Gent model in terms of fit. With its structural molecular basis, simplicity, small number of parameters, and capability to describe multiple deformation modes using a single set of values, the new model is recommended for elastomer deformation applications.

A multi-physics approach on modeling of hygrothermal aging and its effects on constitutive behavior of cross-linked polymers

Amir Bahrololoumi et al.

Summary: A multi-physics model is proposed to predict changes in the constitutive behavior of cross linked polymeric systems due to damages induced by deformation, oxidation, moisture, and temperature. The synergized effects of deformation-induced damage, as well as different environmental factors such as humidity, temperature, and oxygen, can be taken into account through a generic model. The study indicates that hygrothermal aging can be considered as a consequence of damage accumulation of two concurrent aging mechanisms, namely; (i) thermo-oxidative, and (ii) hydrolytic aging.

Summary: This study reviewed 44 hyperelastic constitutive models for elastomers and utilized a novel parameter identification methodology based on various multi-objective optimization strategies. The research assessed the strength and weaknesses of these models under different deformation conditions and sorted them based on their fitting performance to experimental data. The findings suggest that selecting an appropriate constitutive model for specific rubber compounds and applications remains a challenging task for engineers.

Summary: The necessity of including I-2 in the strain energy function W of rubber-like materials is analyzed, and a plausible approach for its incorporation is devised based on experimental data and structural arguments. The resulting additive-type models of W (I-1, I-2) show significant improvement in predicting the mechanics of rubber-like materials compared to the generalised neo-Hookean models, highlighting the central role of I-2 in modeling the finite deformation of such materials.

Fatigue-induced stress-softening in cross-linked multi-network elastomers: Effect of damage accumulation

Vahid Morovati et al.

Summary: Cross-linked elastomers are reinforced materials with high stretchability and toughness, but their toughness can be compromised by accumulating damage under cyclic loadings. A physically motivated constitutive model has been proposed to explain the inelastic features, such as permanent damage, in multi-network elastomers subjected to numerous cyclic deformations. The model suggests that irreversible chain detachment and decomposition of the network due to its highly cross-linked structure are the underlying reasons for nonlinear progressive stress softening phenomenon.
