A machine learning based model is proposed to describe the temperature and strain rate
dependent response of polypropylene. A hybrid modeling approach is taken by combining …

In this article, we introduce a novel physically-based anisotropic damage visco-hyperelastic
model designed to predict the history-dependent inelastic behavior of multiaxially stretched …

In order to predict damage and failure in elastomeric media, a new physically-based model
based upon a multiscale approach is proposed. The behavior of polymer chains is …

Mullins effect of carbon black filled nitrile butadiene rubber compounds and vulcanizates
during cyclic tensile deformation is investigated and the influences of thermal annealing of …

Elastomers and hydrogels with dynamic network structures have received considerable
research interest due to their high strength and toughness, and self-healing ability. While the …
