Contributions of the MART Program to Math Modeling and Material Characterization of Elastomers for Transducer Application,

Abstract

Under the MART Program, General Dynamics/Electric Boat Division has conducted studies to determine the properties of rubber materials that are of interest in sonar application. These properties were used in math models to predict the behavior of these rubber materials in sonar applications such as head mount or tail mount configurations. The math models for the rubber components were used in composite math models for transducer elements.
