Numerical simulation to assess the elastic-strain energy distribution in a silicon rubber disk subjected to a punch shear test (PST)

Finite element method simulations were implemented to understand how the strain energy is distributed in a disk-like sample during a punch shear test. Material’s Young modulus can be estimated from this test; however, there is not enough available information about the distribution of the strain ene...
