On the Nonlinear Creep and Recovery of Open Cell Earplug Foams
نویسندگان
چکیده
The compressive creep and recovery of foam earplugs was studied at various applied stresses leading to different fi nal creep strains. Deformation was determined from digital videos of the earplugs via image processing software. Creep could not be modeled by a single exponential in time; creep approximated a power law in time. Nonlinear viscoelasticity was observed: creep compliance depends on stress level. Nevertheless, for strain as high as 24%, recovery follows creep. Recovery does not follow creep at 70% strain. Recovery proceeds to completion given enough time.

Measurement and Modeling of Creep in Open-Cell NiAl Foams
Nickel-rich NiAl foams, consisting of open cells with hollow struts and exhibiting two relative densities (5.0 and 6.6 pct) and average cell sizes (1.27 and 0.85 mm), were creep tested between 800 °C and 1100 °C under compressive stresses between 0.10 and 1.50 MPa. For stresses lower than 0.50 MPa, the foams exhibit secondary creep with power-law behavior characterized by creep exponents and ac...

During the flood development in an oil field, the creep characteristic of mudstone is one of the important factors causing casing damage. In this study, based on the theory of fractional order differential and taking into account the creep damage evolution rules, a fractional nonlinear creep-damage model is proposed to reflect the instantaneous deformation in loading processes and the accelerat...
