Deformation of rubber membranes subjected to fluid loadings

The mechanical behaviour of a rubber-like elastic material is characterized by its strain energy function, which depends on the type of rubber, including its molecular structure and cross-linking. This thesis presents the results of a series of uniaxial tests that were conducted on natural...
