Application of Fractional Calculus Methods to Viscoelastic Response of Amorphous Shape Memory Polymers

Abstract: Constitutive models based on fractional calculus are utilized to investigate the viscoelastic response of thermally activated shape memory polymers (SMPs). Fractional calculus-based viscoelastic equations are fitted to experimental data existing in literature compared with traditional viscoelastic models. In addition, a fractional rheology model is applied to simulate the isothermal recovery of an amorphous SMP. The fit results show a significant improvement in the description of the strain recovery response o… Show more

“…For more than two centuries, this subject was relevant only in pure mathematics, and Euler, Fourier, Abel, Liouville, Riemann, Hadamard, among others, have studied these new fractional operators, by presenting new definitions and studying their most important properties. However, in the past decades, this subject has proven its applicability in many and different natural situations, such as viscoelasticity [11,26], anomalous diffusion [14,19], stochastic processes [9,29], signal and image processing [31], fractional models and control [24,32], etc. This is a very rich field, and for it we find several definitions for fractional integrals and for fractional derivatives [16,25].…”

“…For more than two centuries, this theory has been treated as a purely theoretical mathematical field, and many mathematicians, such as Liouville, 2 Grünwald, 3 Letnikov, 4 Marchaud,5 and Riemann, 6 have developed this field of research by introducing new definitions and studying their most important properties. However, in the past decades, this subject has proven to be useful in many areas of physics and engineering, such as image processing, 7 fluid mechanics, 8 viscoelasticity, [9][10][11] stochastic processes, 12,13 pollution phenomena, 14 geology, 15 thermal conductivity, 16 and turbulent flows. 17 The classical fractional calculus is based on the well-known Riemann-Liouville fractional integrals…”

“…Therefore, various forms of fractional-order differential equations are suggested for standard models. In this sense, the fractional-order calculus plays an important role in physics [1], thermodynamics [2], viscoelasticity [3], electrical circuits theory [4], fractances [5], mechatronics systems [6], signal processing [7], chemical mixing [8], chaos theory [9], engineering [10], biological system [11], and other applications [12]. Also, a large number of literatures on the application of fractional-order differential equations (FODEs) in nonlinear dynamics have been improved.…”
