Prediction of the deformation and fracture of polymeric materials

  • Published:
Polymer Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

Research on the development of express methods of estimating the long-term deformation of polymeric materials based on the use of the time-temperature, time-stress, time-vibration, and time-moisture analogies (superposition) is briefly reviewed. Questions of the multiparameter prediction of the creep of plastics with parallel and serial application of the various analogies are considered. A program of further research is outlined. The possibility of predicting the fracture processes of polymeric composites and estimating the comparative strength of the products obtained from them on the basis of the acoustic emission and thermal radiation effects is demonstrated.
