Effects of the bulk compressibility on rubber isolator’s compressive behaviors

Through combined experimental and finite element analysis, the effect of bulk compressibility on rubber isolators was studied. First, the strain energy functions for rubber materials were studied, and the volumetric term was described by Poisson’s ratio. Second, parameter identification tests of rub...
