Analysed the stress-strain test in the pressing direction of metal rubber specimen, the deformation process can be divided into three stages. Used the accumulative method of high step polynomial, the experience formula of metal rubber’s deformation character can be simply and effectively established. With the fabrication and formation technology, the microscopic physics mechanism has been analyzed in these deformation stages.

To meet the need of damping material at the marine corrosive environment, the clamped-edge disk type of metal rubber specimen is designed and its corrosion-load alternate experiment is performed, the anti-corrosive and damping characteristic of the material at the marine corrosive environment is researched. The experimental results show that the corrosive rate of 304 stainless steel metal rubber specimen at cycle-immersion corrosion-load alternate environment is the highest and its decay rate of dynamic average rigidity is also the highest, and followed by full-immersion, cycle-salt-spray and full-salt-spray environment. The damping characteristic of metal rubber specimen is relatively stable at the corrosion-load alternate experiment; the metal rubber material has anti-corrosion ability at marine environment.

A stress softening known as the Mullins effect is observed usually in rubberlike material after the first load. This paper describes an experimental test method for defining the nonlinear properties of rubber materials used for finite element analysis. Experimental observations have shown that the Mullins effect induces a permanent set and some anisotropy. To test the Mullins effect the mechanical preconditioning is suggested to stabilize the properties of rubber material. A stress-strain curve will change significantly when the rubber material is strained greater than the previous stabilized level. Therefore, material properties at maximum strain level are obtained to predict behavior of rubber products. To obtain the rubber material constants used for finite element analysis to understand the characteristics of automotive rubber parts, mechanical properties tests such as uniaxial tension, equ-biaxial tension and pure shear tests are required. When the load was repeatedly applied to the rubber specimen, the stress-strain relationship was greatest in the first and second cycles, and the larger the strain range, the more the stress was reduced. The material constants were obtained using the stress-strain data after the rubber specimen was stabilized. The value of stiffness decreased as the maximum strain range increased. The static stiffness of an automotive engine mount is calculated by nonlinear finite element analysis using the experimentally determined material constants and compared with the experimental results considering the mechanical preconditioning effect resulting in a good correlation.

Hyperelastic material simulation is necessary for proper testing of products functionality in cases where prototype testing is expensive or not possible. Hyperelastic material is nonlinear and more than one stress-strain response of the material is required for its characterization. The study was focused on prediction of hyperelastic behavior of rubber neglecting the viscoelastic and creep effects in rubber. To obtain the stress strain response of rubber, uniaxial and biaxial tension tests were performed. The data obtained from these tests was utilized to find the coefficients of Mooney-Rivlin, Odgen and Arruda Boyce models. Verification of the behavior as predicted by the fitted models was carried out by comparing the experimental data of a planar shear test with its simulation using the same constitutive models.

The paper deals with the experimental method of the mechanical properties estimation at the beginning of deformation process (elastic behaviour) of the material as well as during the whole deformation stages. The idea of the method results from the observation of the loading and unloading process of the material and analysis of the strain stage.

The localized deformation behavior of annealed Al and Al severely deformed by ECAE process was determined by using microindentation test. Using the method proposed by Tabor, the indentation stress-strain curves of annealed Al and as-ECAE deformed Al were constructed, which display similar work-hardening behavior. For annealed Al, the altitude of the indentation stressstrain curves is a function of the indenter size. A master curve then is constructed, which displays different work-hardening behavior. For the ECAE deformed Al, the indentation stress-strain curves are independent of the indenter size, suggesting that the microstructure inside the as-ECAE deformed Al is different from the annealed Al.

Metal rubber is one kind of elastic cellular metal material, which is widely used in vibration isolation environment for its excellent properties of elasticity, energy dissipation, and environmental adaptability. However, the stiffness range of one single metal rubber is restricted, which limits its ability of vibration isolation, especially under the complex vibration loads. In this paper, a method of spatial overlay combination is presented to widen the range of the stiffness of metal rubber material. The contact behavior of the metal spiral rolls and the influence factors of manufacture to the stiffness are investigated according to the micro-spring theory and the energy dissipation theory. The static tests under cycling loading are conducted to obtain the average stiffness and the equivalent stiffness of the combined metal rubber. After the comparisons, the combined metal rubber has a better stiffness range than the individual element. The diameter of metal wire and the relative density of metal rubber are two important influence factors to the combined stiffness, which are verified by the experimental tests and finite element simulation.
