Recycled rubber materials are one of cheap and suitable materials for energy absorbers in protective structures. Standard tests of elastomers in uniaxial or biaxial tension is not suitable and efficient for energy absorbers made of recycled car tires. Simple compression test and simple impact test are described material properties from those tests are determined and compared with simulation in ANSYS/AUTODYN.
