Mechanics of soft polymeric materials using a fractal viscoelastic model

چکیده
Soft materials are known for their plethora of biomedical applications, intricate structure–property correlation and nonlinear mechanical response. Multiple length–time scale phenomena hierarchical structure results in nonlinearity. Phenomenological continuum models have been developed to predict mechanics, which mostly very material-specific with inability the mechanics different types soft simultaneously. This shortcoming has addressed present work, wherein a generic viscoelastic model proposed response hydrogels, sponges, xerogels. A fractal derivative is considering Maxwell parallel spring. In particular, this chosen qualitatively mimic material nonlinearity inherent materials. The dashpot combination spring accounts power law time-dependent rheology These two aspects form stiffness non-Newtonian account most shown fit well existing literature multitude classes test conditions loading rates, one salient features model, apart from its simplistic mathematical framework. Further, parametric study reported on nanocellulose loaded poly(vinyl alcohol) xerogel. predictions observed be conjunction experimental observations.

Characterization of Viscoelastic Properties of Polymeric Materials through Nanoindentation
Nanoindentation is used to determine the dynamic viscoelastic properties of six polymer materials. It is shown that varying the harmonic frequency of the nanoindentation does not have any significant effect on the measured storage and loss moduli of the polymers. Agreement is found between these results and data from DMA testing of the same materials. Varying the harmonic amplitude of the nanoi...
متن کاملFractal Materials, Beams, and Fracture Mechanics
Continuing in the vein of a recently developed generalization of continuum thermomechanics, in this paper we extend fracture mechanics and beam mechanics to materials described by fractional integrals involving D, d and R. By introducing a product measure instead of a Riesz measure, so as to ensure that the mechanical approach to continuum mechanics is consistent with the energetic approach, sp...

Understanding the biomechanical properties and the effect of biomechanical force on epithelial cells is key to understanding how epithelial cells form uniquely shaped structures in two or three-dimensional space. Nevertheless, with the limitations and challenges posed by biological experiments at this scale, it becomes advantageous to use mathematical and 'in silico' (computational) models as a...
