Investigation of polymer sheets in a two-dimensional stressed state

  • Published:
Mechanics of Composite Materials Aims and scope

Conclusions

  1. 1.

    Relationships between the stress and strain of a sheet material during bulging and the angle through which the normal stresses act on the sheets are derived.

  2. 2.

    The behavior of various rubber sheets in a two-dimensional stressed state is investigated, and complete coincidence between computed and experimental relationships is established.
