Abstract
⺠We identify the dynamic compressive response of a prospective soft-tissue-simulating elastomer using an inverse method. ⺠Finite element modeling combines with high-speed digital image correlation to identify the dynamic stiffness. ⺠The method eliminates measurement errors due to specimen inertia and friction effects. ⺠This elastomer's stiffness was unchanged over the six decades in strain rate examined.
