Simple model for the deformation-induced relaxation of glassy polymers.
Glassy polymers show "strain hardening": at constant extensional load, their flow first accelerates, then arrests. Recent experiments have found this to be accompanied by a striking and unexplained dip in the segmental relaxation time. Here we explain such behavior by combining a minimal model of flow-induced liquefaction of a glass with a description of the stress carried by strained polymers,...
متن کاملElastic energy storage in primary feather shafts.
It is proposed that the kinetic energy of a pigeon's wing, in hovering or slow forward flight, is transferred to the air at the end of the downstroke by a mechanism involving temporary storage of additional energy in bent primary feather shafts. Estimates of the amounts of energy which can be stored and recovered in this way are compared with the requirements of the theory. The hypothesis is no...
متن کاملCraze 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 کاملSimulation of Plastic Deformation in Glassy Polymers: Atomistic and Mesoscale Approaches
The mechanism of deformation in glasses is very different from that of crystals, even though their general behavior is very similar. In this study, we investigated the deformation of polycarbonate on the atomistic scale with molecular dynamics and on the continuum scale with a new simulation approach. The results indicated that high atomic/segmental mobility and low local density enabled the fo...
متن کاملStorage of elastic energy in skeletal muscles in man.
ASMUSSEN, E. and F. BONDE-PETERSEN. Storage of elastic energy in skeletal muscles in man. Acta physiol. scand. 1974. 91. 385-392 The question, if muscles can absorb and temporarily store mechanical energy in the form of elastic energy for later re-use, was studied by having subjects perform maximal verticaljumps on a registering force-platform. The jumps were performed 1) from a semi-squatting ...
