Abstract
Since, hyperelastic materials, such rubber, are widely used in different life fields principally in engineering of elastomeric bearing pads. The present study aims to determine a suitable constitutive model dependent on strain energy potential which can characterize hyperelastic material behavior through uniaxial tension test only. Built-in ABAQUS software constitutive hyperelastic models are used to fit the experimental results of the uniaxial tension test, check the stability and obtain the material coefficients. The used models are that of Mooney-Rivlin, Polynomial, Neo-Hookean, Yeoh and Ogden. The results revealed that Polynomial, Ogden and then Yeoh models are convenient to fit the hyperelastic behavior of the rubber material while Mooney-Rivlin and Neo-Hookean models have a slight ability of fitting limited to the early stage of the linear behavior of the material.
