Craze initiation in glassy polymers
In this work a method is presented that can be used to predict craze initiation in glassy polymers. The approach is based on the view that the development of a craze is preceded by de formation of a localised plastic deformation zone. As this zone develops, the hydrostatic stress increases, and, when exceeding a critical stress level, cavitation will take place, leading to local development of ...
متن کاملA Phenomenological Study on Inelastic Torsion Caused By Nonlinear Behavior Changes during Earthquake Excitations
Torsion of many symmetric structures, which were designed based on the seismic codes, is due to their asymmetricity induced during inelastic behavior. Although the structure was designed symmetrically assuming elastic based criteria, different factors such as material inconsistency in structure, construction details discrepancy and construction errors may result in asymmetric behavior in inelas...
متن کاملScaling of the Strain Hardening Modulus of Glassy Polymers with the Flow Stress
In a recent letter, Govaert et al. examined the relationship between strain hardening modulus Gr and flow stress σflow for five different glassy polymers. In each case, results forGr at different strain rates or different temperatures are linearly related to the flow stress. They noted that this linear relation is different than a simple proportionality between Gr and σflow, which they claimed ...
متن کاملMolecular dynamics simulations of glassy polymers
We review recent results from computer simulation studies of polymer glasses, from chain dynamics around glass transition temperature Tg to the mechanical behaviour below Tg. These results clearly show that modern computer simulations are able to address and give clear answers to some important issues in the field, in spite of the obvious limitations in terms of length and time scales. In the p...
متن کاملPredictors of cavitation in glassy polymers under tensile strain: a coarse grained molecular dynamics investigation
The nucleation of cavities in a homogenous polymer under tensile strain is investigated in a coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulation. In order to establish a causal relation between local microstructure and the onset of cavitation, a detailed analysis of some local properties is presented. In contrast to common assumptions, the nucleation of a cavity is neither correlated to a local loss o...
