vi ABSTRACT The viscous behavior of the fiber-reinforced composite materials with rubber-like matrix is modeled in the continuum mechanics framework by the Helmholtz free energy function and the evolution equations of the internal variables. The decomposition of the free energy function and the chosen viscoelastic model are bases for formulation and description of the viscous characteristics of these anisotropic materials. Numerical simulations to predict the response of these materials in finite strains are performed. The dissertation focused on experimental evaluating the purely elastic and viscoelastic material parameters of proposed models via some standard experiments on relaxation, such as simple tension, pure shear and biaxial tensile tests.

Both the isotropic and anisotropic materials were tested. Several numerical examples were implemented in FEM software COMSOL Multiphysics and compared with the experimental results. The applications of the model were enlarged to predict other viscoelastic phenomena i. creep and influence of loading velocities on stresses.

The influence of the directions of reinforcing fibers was also examined. The viscoelastic model was applied to a practical example that is an air-spring with two fiber reinforcements undergoing an internal pressure. An extension of nonlinear theory for rubber-like anisotropic composites was applied to magneto-sensitive (MS) elastomers under an external magnetic field. The constitutive equations of both magnetic and mechanical fields were presented.

Some numerical computations of a coupling of magnetic and mechanical problems were illustrated in order to describe a nonlinear characteristic of MS elastomer. Key words: Composites, rubber-like matrix, fiber-reinforced, viscoelasticity, magneto-sensitive elastomers, experimental, FEM. vii ABSTRAKT Viskózní chování kompozitních materiálů s pryžovou matricí vyztuženou kordy je modelováno v rámci mechaniky kontinua pomocí Helmholtzovy funkce volné energie a vývojových rovnic pro vnitřní proměnné. Rozklad funkce volné energie a zvolený viskoelastický model jsou základem pro formulaci a popis viskózní vlastnosti těchto anizotropních materiálů.

Jsou uvedeny numerické simulace pro přepověď odezvy těchto materiálů na konečné deformace. Disertační práce se zaměřuje na experimentální určení elastických a viskoelastických materiálových parametrů navrhovaných modelů pomocí některých standardních testů jako je tahová zkouška, čistý smyk a dvouosé tahové zkoušky kvazistatické i relaxační. Byly testovány izotropní a anizotropní (kompozitní) materiály. Několik numerických případů je implementováno do MKP prostředí COMSOL Multiphysics a srovnáno s experimentálními výsledky.

Aplikace modelu byly rozšířeny o numerickou předpověď dalších viskoelastických jevů jako je tečení a vliv rychlosti zatížení na napětí. Vliv směru vlákenné výztuže byl rovněž zkoumán. Viskoelastický model byl aplikován na numerickou simulaci vnitřním přetlakem zatížené vzduchové válcové pružiny, jejíž pryžový plášť je vyztužen dvěma skupinami kordů. Nelineární materiálový anizotropní model byl rozšířen na případ magneto-sensitivních elastomerů mechanicky zatížených ve vnějším magnetickém poli.

Numerické simulace odezvy tělesa s magneto-mechanickou vazbou jsou uvedeny s cílem popsat nelineární vlastnosti magneto-sensitivních elastomerů. Klíčová slova: Kompozity, pryžová matrice, kordová výztuž, viscoelasticita, magneto-sensitivní elastomery, experiment, MKP. viii Table of Contents List of figures xiii List of tables xvii Notation and symbols xviii Chapter 1.
