Integration algorithm is a key to ensure the better application of the dynamic constitutive model. As for the bounding surface model based on swell–shrink rules in this paper, an explicit integration algorithm based on sub-stepping and error control scheme has be described in detail. For being adaptable to the constitutive model, several modifications have been made. The modified explicit algorithm includes two procedures: the first procedure is the second-order forward modified Euler scheme with sub-stepping and error control; the second procedure is the stress correction. However, due to the shrink rule of the bounding surface, the second procedure is not needed at the unloading phase. Finally, several numerical simulations have been conducted for assessing the performance of the explicit algorithm, which demonstrates that the corresponding algorithm is stable and accurate, and can simulate the mechanical characteristics of the clay pretty well.

Abstract Uncured rubber possesses remarkable hyperelastic and viscoelastic properties while it undergoes large deformation; therefore, it has wide application prospects and attracts great research interests from academia and industry. In this paper, a nonlinear constitutive model with two parallel networks is developed to describe the mechanical response of uncured rubber. The constitutive model is incorporated with the Eying model to describe the hysteresis phenomenon and viscous flow criterion, and the hyperelastic properties under large deformation are captured by a non-Gaussian chain molecular network model. Based on the model, the mechanical behaviors of hyperelasticity, viscoelasticity and hysteresis under different strain rates are investigated. Furthermore, the constitutive model is employed to estimate uniaxial tensile, cyclic loading–unloading and multistep tensile relaxation mechanical behaviors of uncured rubber, and the prediction results show good agreement with the test data. The nonlinear mechanical constitutive model provides an efficient method for predicting the mechanical response of uncured rubber materials.
