The rubber group at QMUL, hosted this year's major global conference on the constituative modelling of rubber. The event was attended by about 140 delegates from 30 different countries around the world. The conference brought together specialists in constitutive modelling, researchers in materials science, software development engineers and practitioners of finite element analysis of elastomeric components. The aims being to broaden the scope of modelling beyond stress-strain behaviour, for example to include heat build-up, friction, electrical properties and fatigue, to discuss advances in modelling the properties of elastomers, with a view to enhancing the capability of simulation tools for elastomeric components and to collate these advances into a quality hard board proceedings.
