“…Conveniently, for purposes of optimal scaling only the growth properties of W (F , ·) are required. A hint of the likely growth properties of W (F , ·) is provided by observations of sharp twin interfaces in crystalline polymers deformed in shear (Agar et al, 1959;Reneker and Geil, 1960;Geil, 1963;Kiho et al, 1964;Keller, 1968;Kovacs et al, 1969;Wittmann and Kovacs, 1970;Pradère et al, 1988;Alcazar et al, 2006). Atomistic simulations of shear deformation in polymers also supply evidence of lamination and of the development of sharp interfaces (cf., e. g., Fortunelli et al (2004); Fortunelli and Ortiz (2007) and references therein).…”
