I have the stress strain data of the rubber tested in compression. Do anybody know how I can obtain from these data Shore A of the material? Thanks!
 
I have never hear that there is a correlation between stress/strain data and hardness.

As far as I know there is no correlation between hardness and stress/strain data.
 
Gent, Engineering with Rubber, indicates an empirical relationship between Shore hardness and initial Young's modulus.
