Filled rubber is a type of multi-phase composite reinforced by nanoparticles. The coexistence of the rubber crosslinks and the secondary network formed by nanoparticles leads to extremely complicated mechanical behaviors like large deformation visco-hyperelastic
dynamical stress softening
self-heating effects etc. How to describe these behaviors using a reasonable constitutive model is a popular and challenge subject for rubber researchers. In recent years the advancement of the simulation technology makes strong requirements for the reliability
accuracy and numerical stability of rubber constitutive model. This paper presents a review of the state of the art rubber constitutive models
especially with regard to the research progresses on hyperelastic
viscoelastic and rheological models. Furthermore
from the perspective of the numerical compatibility between FEA method and rubber constitutive model application
this paper discusses the precision
application range and parameterization of some commonly used rubber constitutive models
which provides guidance to rubber mechanical simulation. Moreover
the challenge and directions for the current rubber constitutive model research has been explored.
