Rubber Creep Model and Its Influence on Mounting Stiffness

The mount of the engine will creep under the action of long-term load. Creep will change its original structure, resulting in changes in static and dynamic characteristics and fatigue life. In order to solve the problem of mounting rubber creep, the creep characteristics were studied in this paper....

Description
Summary:The mount of the engine will creep under the action of long-term load. Creep will change its original structure, resulting in changes in static and dynamic characteristics and fatigue life. In order to solve the problem of mounting rubber creep, the creep characteristics were studied in this paper. In order to study the influence of creep characteristics on engine mounting stiffness, a theoretical model of mount creep was established based on the creep mechanism of rubber. The effects of different loads on the creep characteristics of engine mount were studied. The static viscoelastic parameters and creep analysis of rubber mounting were analyzed numerically. The creep variation law of suspension under different loads is obtained. By analyzing the static and dynamic characteristics of no creep, 2.98 mm creep and 3.83 mm creep of engine mount, the creep characteristics and the variation law of mount stiffness of rubber mount were revealed. The results show that the static stiffness of suspension increases with the increase of creep. When the frequency is constant and the creep increases, the dynamic stiffness of the suspension increases obviously. In this paper, the creep characteristics of rubber mount are analyzed, and the results of the analysis provide a design method for rubber mount design.
