Abstract
Due to its high impact energy absorption properties, devulcanized recycled rubber based composites can be considered as a low cost candidate material for military applications which require lightweight protection against shock waves. This work aims at modeling of low cost devulcanized recycled rubber based composite behavior at high strain rates. In that framework, we established a continuum-based material model in order to capture the macroscopic behavior of the recycled rubber based composite material and numerically reproduce the results from the basic characterization tests. The model is implemented for Finite Element Analysis Software ABAQUS/Standard as a user subroutine UMAT for implicit nonlinear finite element calculations in order to simulate the behavior of several RVEs representing the microstructure of the composite and it is behavior at high strain rates. © 2022, The Society for Experimental Mechanics.
