THE EFFECT OF FILLER ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF AN ELASTOMER AT HIGH STRAIN RATES.

Abstract

Results are presented which show the effect of filler size and content on the stress-strain curves of an elastomer at high strain rates. An equation is proposed for the prediction of the apparent increase in modulus of an elastomer due to the addition of rigid spherical particles. (Author)
