“…19 Elastomers can also be used in rail track system 20 to mitigate vibration. [21][22][23][24][25] Despite the fact that elastomers have several advantages over other types of materials, designing and analyzing elastomeric materials is extremely challenging because of inherent nonlinear elastic, time, temperature, and frequency-dependent properties. Additionally, they soften and are nearly incompressible.…”

Elastomer materials are widely used as shock absorbers in a variety of practical applications including the automotive, aerospace, marine industries and structures. The straightforward Hooke’s law is insufficient to adequately describe the behavior of elastomeric materials due to their nonlinear elastic and viscous properties. This study proposes a hyper-viscoelastic model to describe the mechanical behavior of Hydrogenated Nitrile Butadiene Rubber (HNBR) 62 Duro shore A and Polychloroprene Rubber (PCR) 55 Duro shore A. Six distinct hyperelastic models—Yeoh, Rivlin, Arruda-Boyce, Mooney-Rivlin, Neo-Hookean, and Ogden— are compared herein to explain the nonlinear elastic behavior of elastomers. While the time-dependent characteristics of the considered materials have been described using the four parameters Generalised Maxwell (GM) model. The material parameters of models are determined using the least square fit (LSF) optimization algorithm from the uniaxial, planar, and stress relaxation test data. The stability and suitability of each hyperelastic model is assessed using the Drucker stability. The accuracy of each model is represented by Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of curve fitting between theoretical and experimental data. On this basis, the Ogden order three ( N = 3) model and the four-parameter GM models are selected which well agreed with the experimental test data and they are integrated to generate the hyper-viscoelastic constitutive model. In addition, the hyper-viscoelastic model is used to simulate the HNBR and PCR dampers under shock load. The numerically generated response is finally compared with the experimental test result of natural rubber (NR) 60 IRH from the existing literature to confirm accuracy of the proposed model.
