Disclosed is a method-which is for simulating a rubber material and that contains a step for setting a rubber material model that models, using numerically analyzable elements, a rubber material containing rubber, silica, and an interface bonding agent that bonds same, a step for setting conditions for the rubber material model and calculating deformation, and a step for acquiring needed physical quantities from the deformation calculation-wherein the rubber material model (2) contains: a matrix model (3) that models a rubber matrix; a plurality of silica models (4) that are disposed within the matrix model (3) and that model silica; and an interface model (5) that surrounds the periphery of each silica model (4) in a ring shape and of which harder physical properties than the aforementioned matrix model are set. Furthermore, the rubber material model contains coupled bodies wherein a plurality of silica models (4) are coupled with an interface model (5) therebetween. |
