Ogden equation data for silicone rubber?
(OP)
I'm trying to perform a large deflection, non-linear analysis of a rubber part. The part will be made from silicone rubber. I'm told the ogden equations are applicable for this exercise. Unfortunately, I am unable to find the numbers to plug into the equation. I have contacted a couple of materials suppliers, but they have been unable to assist me. Does anyone have these numbers so I can at least get a rough idea what's going on? Natural rubber would even be ok.

There has got to be some place where somebody has used Ogden's equation to do large displacement of a rubber body.

If you could switch to 3 parameters for alpha and mu, you might want to take a look at this book excerpt, pag 435
