The emphasis in characterising isochoric materials has shifted significantly away from understanding and modelling hyperelastic material behaviour to a position where it it is possible to design and manufacture rubber components having the functionality and resilience to meet the dynamic loading and harsh environmental conditions that are prevalent today. This book is not only essential reading for undergraduates postgraduates academics and researchers working in the discipline but also for all those designers and engineers involved in the improvement of machines and devices by introducing new and novel elastomers possessing elevated properties.
