Identification data (sample 1) and validation data (samples 2, 3, and 4). (a) and (b) correspond to engineering strain () and load () of sample 1, respectively. (c) correspond to of sample 2 (red) and 3 (black). In (d) is shown sample 4. The dashed-dotted lines indicate the first compression of each sample (Neo Hookean behavior).
