Extended Micromechanical Model for the Hyperelastic Behavior of Elastomers and Identification of Material Parameters Using the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) Algorithm
Journal of Carbon Neutrality | Volume 1, Issue 1: 38-63, 2026 | DOI: 10.62762/JCN.2026.518617
Abstract
In this work, we propose a new four-parameter micromechanical model to describe the hyperelastic behavior of elastomeric materials. The proposed model extends and improves a previously developed three-parameter micromechanical approach. As in earlier studies, the constitutive behavior is obtained by minimizing the potential energy of a Representative Volume Element (RVE) composed of multiple macromolecular chains. Each chain segment is modeled as a linear spring with stiffness $K$, acting in both tension and compression. To account for rotational flexibility between consecutive segments, nonlinear torsional springs are introduced, whose behavior is described as the sum of two contributions:... More >
