Abstract

Well tailored compressive stress-strain relations for elastomeric open and closed cell foams under a uni-axial stress compression were developed. These sets are aimed at replacing those presented by Gibson and Ashby (1988) [1] since they are mismatched and cannot be used. The proposed set of compressible stress-strain relations for elastomeric open cell foams was compared with experimental results. Good agreement was seen.
