Zusammenfassung:	Described here is the design and development of a computer-controlled device capable of measuring the finite strain thermomechanical behavior of a general class of polymeric materials including elastomers and biological soft tissues. The utility of this device for thermoelastic and thermophysical investigations is demonstrated by the measurement of the in-plane stress-stretch response and in-plane and out-of-plane components of thermal diffusivity of neoprene rubber undergoing finite deformations.[S0021-8936(00)01603-2]
