Abstract

Ethylene vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) is good for impact protection and energy absorption, and belongs to rate sensitive-dependent materials. This study aimed to investigate the influence of increased strain rate and the presence of entrapped air on the enhancement of foam material strength. The compression deformation behavior of EVA foams containing a microporous structure was extensively investigated over different strain rates of 0.0017/s, 0.033/s, and 0.17/s, where each test was conducted at a constant compression velocity. A one-dimensional dynamic constitutive model was established to describe the large deformation response of EVA to different strain rates. The model included two components, the material action part and the air pressure part. Quasi-static and dynamic compression tests were used to determine the constitutive relations of three parameters, a1, a2, and the leaking rate δ·. The samples with EVA foams at different strain rates were fitted using ORIGIN software, and the constitutive model parameters were obtained. It was found that the ratio of the air leaking rate to the strain rate gradually decreases, causing air within the EVA to be trapped in the cells rather than escaping in a timely manner with increasing strain rates.
