Modeling of Nonlinear Viscoelastic Creep of Polycarbonate

Abstract: Abstract:The creep behavior of a commercial grade polycarbonate was investigated in this study. 10 different constant stresses ranging from 8 MPa to 50 MPa were applied to the specimen, and the resultant creep strains were measured at room temperature. It was found that the creep could be modeled linearly below 15 MPa, and nonlinearly above 15 MPa. Different nonlinear viscoelastic models have been briefly reviewed and used to fit the test data. It is shown that the Findley model is a special case of the Schape… Show more

“…The commonly used nonlinear viscoelastic models include multiple integral models, single integral models and power law models [ 2 , 3 ]. Among them, the single integral models have simple forms and have been widely used in engineering applications because of the easy determination of the model kernel function by simple experiments.…”

“…Furthermore, several rheological models of asphalt mixtures were proposed in the past [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 , 18 , 19 ]. These models can be divided into integral constitutive and differential constitutive models [ 15 , 20 ]. The integral viscoelastic constitutive model, which considers the loading history and memory of materials, is developed based on methods such as the Boltzmann superposition principle or the Leaderman modified superposition principle.…”
