NONLINEAR PROPERTIES OF RUBBER-CORD SHELLS OF TIRE-TYPE PNEUMATIC CLUTCHES

摘要

Results from a study of the nonlinear elastic properties of rubber-cord shells in a static loading regime are presented. A method of determining the nonlinear properties is proposed. The nonlinearity coefficients are obtained on the basis of a fifth-degree polynomial with odd indicators. The approximations that are obtained satisfactorily describe the results of experiments.
