Creep of polymer materials under periodically varying loads

  • Published:
Polymer Mechanics Aims and scope

Abstract

A method is proposed for constructing the creep curves of a material whose nonlinear memory properties are described by Rozovskii's nonlinear integral equation [2] (with allowance for the stress dependence of the relaxation time) under given periodic loading from known creep curves recorded at constant stress. In deriving the theoretical relation certain simplifying assumptions are made (the creep strain accumulated in 1–2 cycles is small, no vibration [4–6]). An experimental check shows that the proposed method can be used to predict the behavior of a material under periodic loading with an accuracy sufficient for practical purposes.
