Abstract

Since the appearance of Kuhn’s original theory of rubber elasticity 1,2,3 a number of methods have been proposed for the solution of “the network problem”. What is common to all of these theories is that the rubber is considered to have a “simple energetic structure” such as to show a definite number of energy-equivalent subunits of deformation 1–4. For making the characterization complete there is need of defining the “perfect”strain-energy function.
