Abstract

A new constitutive model of rubber is proposed based on the kinetics of elastic moduli. The model describes both linear and non-linear behaviour of rubber as well as rupture of inner bonds. In particular, it describes the well-known Mullins and Payne effects. It can be used for simulating both friction and wear of rubber.
