摘要
In this paper, we present a modified model describing the constitutive relation of viscoelas-tic dielectric elastomer (DE). The uniform uniaxial tension-recovery experiment was carried out at different stretching rates. Based on Yeoh hyper-elastic model, model-fitting approach is put forward to obtain the relationship between parameters of Yeoh model and stretching rate, thus the modified model was obtained. From the approximate relationship between harmonic motion and uniform reciprocating motion, the stress-strain curve in the recovery process was also identified through the hysteresis between stress and strain. The modified model, with concise form and evident physical concept, can describe the strong nonlinear behavior between deformation and mechanical stress of the material in a common stretching rate range (from 0.01s^-1 to 0.8s^-1 at least). The accuracy and reliability of the modified model was examined.
