Hello Solidworks community.
I am trying to perform a fatigue analysis on a silicon rubber off/on switch using Solidworks 2017 Simulation Premium. Most of the materials in the database do not have associated fatigue curves. The silicon rubber is one of those materials. Does anybody know if fatigue curves (or fatigue data) exists for rubber?
Thank-you
