Stress-Strain Behavior of Thermoplastic Polyurethane
The large strain nonlinear stress-strain behavior of thermoplastic polyurethanes (TPUs) exhibits strong hysteresis, rate dependence and softening. Thermoplastic polyurethanes are copolymers composed of hard and soft segments. The hard and soft segments phase separate to form a microstructure of hard and soft domains typically on a length scale of a few tens of nanometers. Studies have revealed ...
متن کاملModification of exponential based hyperelastic strain energy to consider free stress initial configuration and Constitutive modeling
In this research, the exponential stretched based hyperelastic strain energy was modified to provide the unstressed initial configuration. To this end, as the first step, the model was calibrated by the experimental data to find the best material parameters. The fitting results indicated material stability in large deformations and basic loading modes. In the second step, the initial pseudo str...
متن کاملMultiscale modeling of oriented thermoplastic elastomers with lamellar morphology
Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) are block copolymers made up of ‘‘hard’’ (glassy or crystalline) and ‘‘soft’’ (rubbery) blocks that self-organize into ‘‘domain’’ structures at a length scale of a few tens of nanometers. Under typical processing conditions, TPEs also develop a ‘‘polydomain’’ structure at the micron level that is similar to that of metal polycrystals. Therefore, from a continuum ...
متن کاملDamping Behavior of the Phenolic Based Composite Friction Materials Containing Thermoplastic Elastomers (TPEs)
Attempts have been made for the first time to produce a friction material with thermal sensitive modulus by the inclusion of combined plastic/rubber properties of thermoplastic elastomers (TPE) as viscoelastic polymeric materials into the formulation for the purpose of increasing the damping behavior. In order to evaluate the viscoelastic parameters such as loss factor (tan δ) and elastic m...
متن کاملConstitutive modeling of the Mullins effect and cyclic stress softening in filled elastomers.
The large strain behavior of filled rubbers is characterized by the strong Mullins effect, permanent set, and induced anisotropy. Strain controlled cyclic tests also exhibit a pronounced hysteresis as a strain rate independent phenomenon. Prediction of these inelastic features in elastomers is an important challenge with immense industrial and technological relevance. In the present paper, a mi...
