The Payne effect for particle-reinforced elastomers
Aleksey D. Drozdov, Al Dorfmann
The study deals with the Payne effect (a substantial decrease in the storage modulus of a particle-reinforced elastomer with an increase in the amplitude of mechanical oscillations…
The effect of temperature on the viscoelastic response of rubbery polymers at finite strains
Aleksey D. Drozdov, Al Dorfmann
Constitutive equations are derived for the viscoelastic response of rubbery polymers at finite strains. A polymer is thought of as a network of long chains connected to temporary j…
Modeling the viscoelastoplastic response of amorphous glassy polymers
Aleksey D. Drozdov
Constitutive equations are derived for the viscoelastoplastic response of amorphous glassy polymers at isothermal loading with small strains. A polymer is treated as an ensemble of…
Modelling structural relaxation in polymeric glasses using the aggregation-fragmentation concept
Aleksey D. Drozdov
Governing equations are derived for the kinetics of physical aging in polymeric glasses. An amorphous polymer is treated as an ensemble of cooperatively rearranged regions (CRR). A…
Buckling of rods with spontaneous twist and curvature
Aleksey D. Drozdov, Yitzhak Rabin
We analyze stability of a thin inextensible elastic rod which has non-vanishing spontaneous generalized torsions in its stress-free state. Two classical problems are studied, both…
Enthalpy recovery in semicrystalline polymers
Aleksey D. Drozdov
Constitutive equations are derived for enthalpy recovery in polymeric glasses after thermal jumps. The model is based on the theory of cooperative relaxation in a version of the tr…
