PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a deformation behavior prediction method of a rubber material capable of predicting deformation behavior of the rubber material accurately even in the case of a micro-level. SOLUTION: A three-dimensional model constituted of three elements, namely, rubber, a filling material, and a boundary layer formed by adsorption of the rubber onto the surface of the filling material, is generated as a model for the rubber material, and each physical property determined by experiments is added to each of the three elements, to thereby predict the deformation behavior of the rubber material. When adding the physical property to the boundary layer, the physical property corresponding to each position in the thickness direction of the boundary layer is added based on a temperature distribution in the thickness direction of the boundary layer determined from a molecular dynamics method or on data of temperature dependency of a physical property measured beforehand relative to the rubber.
