Laminated neoprene pad Experiment

Welcome to our website News on Crunch , as we know there are various applications of Laminated Neoprene pad under construction of bridges due to their elastomeric tendency. So, let's perform an experiment and get to know more about this: Objective(s) for Laminated Neoprene Pad To determine the equivalent modulus of elasticity of a laminated neoprene pad under axial compression load by plotting a stress-strain curve based on the recorded data. Materials and Resources Measured dimensions of laminated neoprene pad, L × B × t = 250 × 200 × 44 mm  Rubber layer: 8 mm thick 3 Nos. Steel plates: 3 mm thick 4 Nos. Top and bottom rubber cover: 4 mm thick 2 Nos. Side cover rubber: 6 mm thick (all four sides) Steel plate area: 238 × 188 mm = 44744 mm2 Shore-A hardness of the specimen: 70 (approximately ) Modulus of elasticity of steel = 205 GPa Code(s) Code 1 : Description(write it in Octave or Matlab ) clc  clear data = csvread('your csv file name(
