Abstract

This paper develops a methodology to test and evaluate the dynamic properties of elastomeric compounds and of rubber to metal devices by means of an electrodynamic shaker. The dynamic tensile and shear moduli of elastomeric materials and the dynamic stiffness of rubber components are evaluated under different conditions of excitation frequency, temperature, dynamic deformation, and static load.
