Recent developments in order to represent the material behaviour of filler-reinforced elastomers under realistic operating conditions are collected in this volume. Special topics are finite element simulations and methods, dynamic material properties, experimental characterization, lifetime prediction, friction, multiphysics and biomechanics, reinf
Das Buch gibt einen verständlichen Überblick der Zusammenhänge zwischen Molekularprozessen und mechanischen Eigenschaften polymerer Substanzen. Der Autor behandelt den Aufbau und die Struktur von Polymeren von einem physikalischen Standpunkt aus. Er stellt die mechanischen und thermischen Eigenschaften der Kunststoffe als Konstruktionsmaterialien, das Deformationsverhalten von vernetzten Kautschuken und das Fließverhalten von Polymerschmelzen verständlich dar. Dazu leitet er die zugrundeliegenden Theorien von der Basis her ab und veranschaulicht die Zusammenhänge durch experimentelles Erfahrungsmaterial. Das Buch wendet sich an Studenten der Kunststofftechnik mit einer Grundausbildung in Physik, Chemie und Mathematik. Es bietet dem Ingenieur ein bleibendes Rüstzeug für die technische Anwendung von Kunststoffen.
Current Perspectives and New Directions in Mechanics, Modelling and Design of Structural Systems comprises 330 papers that were presented at the Eighth International Conference on Structural Engineering, Mechanics and Computation (SEMC 2022, Cape Town, South Africa, 5-7 September 2022). The topics featured may be clustered into six broad categories that span the themes of mechanics, modelling and engineering design: (i) mechanics of materials (elasticity, plasticity, porous media, fracture, fatigue, damage, delamination, viscosity, creep, shrinkage, etc); (ii) mechanics of structures (dynamics, vibration, seismic response, soil-structure interaction, fluid-structure interaction, response to ...
This book describes the properties of single polymer molecules and polymeric materials and the methods how to characterize them. Molar masses, molar mass distributions and branching structure are discussed in detail. These properties are decisive for a deeper understanding of structure/properties relationships of polymeric materials. This book therefore describes and discusses them in detail. The mechanical behavior as a function of time and temperature is a key subject of the book. The authors present it on the basis of many original results they have obtained in their long research careers. They present the temperature dependence of mechanical properties of various polymeric materials in a...
Understanding the elastic properties of polymer melts is necessary for ensuring successful polymer processing and thus producing high-quality plastic parts. This unique book is the first to focus on this important topic. Starting with the molecular origin of elastic behavior and an explanation of the physical quantities involved, experimental methods and the dependence of elastic behavior on experimental parameters are then presented. Elastic properties of filled and unfilled systems are compared directly, and polymer blends are also considered. Elastic effects in various applications are included, such as in extrudate swell, internal stresses, and shrink films, to illustrate the importance of this field in the plastics processing industry.
