Investigation of elastomer rheological properties based on multi-circuit scheme synthesis of the experimental sample substitution

The paper is to describe the method for studying the rheological characteristics of elastomers using a multi-circuit electrical scheme of substitution, the synthesis of which is performed on the basis of experimental data obtained during the mechanical relaxation of loaded test samples at a fixed value of the relative deformation. In analyzing the fast and slow stages of the stress relaxation process in elastomer test specimens with significantly different viscoelastic properties, it is established that the number of relaxation mechanisms in the decomposition of the time dependence into exponentials does not exceed 6 (six).
