Identifying Predominant stress criteria in Tire deformation

Identifying Predominant stress criteria in Tire deformation

Identifying Predominant stress criteria in Tire deformation

(OP)
In modeling of radial and axial deformation of tires, I basically look into von misses stress on critical areas in the tire,and most of the times, I do comparisons of mises stresses in different proposals than sticking into their magnitudes.
I would like to know whether there is any predominant stress criteria, specially in rubber models, which I should look into?

Thanking you

RE: Identifying Predominant stress criteria in Tire deformation

Rubbers fail in tensile strain, I think. I'd be using that if you can find no other source of information.

On the other hand bonded rubber bushes often fail at the rubber/metal interface, where presumably the strains are small. Hmmm.

Cheers
