This PhD thesis aims to experimentally characterize the fatigue crack growth behaviour in natural rubber, and is particularly interested in the neighbourhood of the crack tip where the well-known phenomenon of strain-induced crystallization takes place due to the large strains in this region. The final goal is therefore to explain the outstanding fatigue properties and crack growth resistance of natural rubber which are recognized for a while in literature. On the one hand, fatigue crack growth rate tests are performed to evaluate the influence of various parameters such as the type of elastomer, the carbon-black content and non-relaxing conditions, on the fatigue crack growth resistance. On the other hand, various experimental methods are ...
