Download or read book Nonlinear Viscoelastic Behaviour of Linear Polyethylene written by Tony Samurkas and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The nonlinear viscoelastic properties of a series of blends of linear polyethylene were studied using the McGill sliding plate rheometer. A more reliable and sensitive shear stress transducer for this rheometer was designed, built and used in this work. The molecular weight dependence of a variety of nonlinear viscoelastic properties was investigated. It was determined that, as with steady state properties, the sensitivity of such properties to molecular weight diminishes with increasing shear rate. The behavior of these materials in large amplitude oscillatory shear (LAOS) was also studied. By using harmonic analysis, the frequency content of the nonlinear stress response to the sinusoidal strain was studied as a function of molecular weight, strain amplitude and frequency. The predictive abilities of the Wagner model in LAOS, exponential shear, start-up and cessation of steady shear and interrupted shear, at high shear rates were evaluated. Qualitative trends were well predicted by the model for a variety of sigmoidal and exponential damping function forms. For the first time, it has been shown that Wagner model predictions for molten thermoplastics are insensitive to the damping function form. The damping functions in simple shear and planar extension were obtained for a branched low density polyethylene (LDPE). Simple shear is similar to planar extension in a rotated reference frame and thus the two flows should have similar damping functions. It was found that the damping functions that fitted these two flows are, in fact, quite different. Thus we have shown that the contribution of kinematics cannot be simply described." --

Download or read book Polymer Viscoelasticity written by Y.-H. Lin and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2011 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers in great detail the Rouse-segment-based molecular theories in polymer viscoelasticity ? the Rouse theory and the extended reptation theory (based on the framework of the Doi?Edwards theory) ? that have been shown to explain experimental results in a consistently quantitative way. The explanation for the 3.4 power law of viscosity, quantitative line-shape analyses of viscoelastic responses and agreements between different sorts of viscoelastic responses, the consistency between the viscoelasticity and diffusion results, the clarification of the onset of entangelement, the discovery of the number of entanglement strands per cubed entanglement distance being a universal constant and the basic mechanism of the glass transition-related thermorheological complexity are discussed or shown in great detail. The mystery behind the success of the Rouse-segment-based molecular theories over the entropic region of a viscoelastic response is revealed by the Monte Carlo simulations on the Fraenkel chains. Specifically, the simulation studies give a natural explanation for the coexistence of the energy-driven and entropy-driven modes in a viscoelastic response and provide a theoretical basis resolving the paradox that the experimentally determined sizes of Rouse and Kuhn segments are nearly the same. This book starts from a very fundamental level; each chapter is built upon the contents of the previous chapters. Thus, the readers may use the book as a textbook and eventually reach an advanced research level. This book is also a useful source of reference for physicists, chemists and material scientists.

Download or read book A Viscoelastic Plastic Constitutive Model with a Finite Element Solution Methodology written by M. Katona and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A textbook style development of viscoplasticity is presented. For completeness, the report also includes a detailed review of plasticity and viscoelasticity. The combination of plasticity and viscoelasticity is the basis for the so-called viscoelastic-plastic model developed herein. Other combo- viscoplastic models are also introduced. Each constitutive model is introduced with conceptual one-dimensional stress-strain models and then generalized for multidimensional stress space. Furthermore, each model is cast in an incremental form appropriate for numerical solution techniques. Finite element algorithms are outlined for incorporating these nonlinear constitutive models into boundary value problems. In particular, tangent stiffness and initial strain methods are discussed. The viscoelastic-plastic model is compared to experimental data for plexiglas and sea-ice to illustrate the versatility of the model in replicating nonlinear creep and flow of these materials. Moreover, the identification of the model parameters are shown to be no more difficult than the identification of parameters for the classical theories of plasticity and viscoelasticity.
