From Complex Modulus E* to Creep Compliance D(t): Experimental and Modeling Study [PDF]
Creep compliance (D(t)) is a very important input for the thermal cracking resistance in the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG). The aim of the work presented here is to predict the results of creep compliance D(t) from the result of ...

Creep compliance of functionalized graphene-epoxy nanocomposites
Creep behavior is observed even at room temperature in polymers and polymer composites under constant stress. In the design of structural elements using these materials, the determination of creep compliance for structural strength and performance analysis is crucial in terms of reliability and usability.

Long-Term Creep Compliance of Wood Polymer Composites: Using Untreated Wood Fibers as a Filler in Recycled and Neat Polypropylene Matrix. [PDF]
Neat (NPP) and recycled (RPP) polypropylene matrix materials were used to prepare wood–polymer composites with untreated wood fibers up to 40 wt.%. Long-term creep properties obtained through the time-temperature superposition showed superior creep ...

The constant‐hardness creep compliance of polycrystalline ice
AbstractWe have performed creep and stress‐reduction experiments on polycrystalline ice (grain sizes, d ≈ 30 and ≈ 245 µm) in the grain boundary sliding and dislocation creep regimes (stresses σ = 0.5–5 MPa, temperature T = 233 K) to determine the constant‐hardness creep compliance under these conditions.

Comprehensive creep compliance characterization of orthotropic materials using an automated system. [PDF]
Abstract Determining the creep compliances of orthotropic composite materials requires experiments in at least three different uniaxial and biaxial loading directions. Up to date, data respecting multiple climates and all anatomical directions are sparse for hygro-responsive materials like Norway spruce.

Efficient Approximation Method for Concrete Creep Compliance Function
For concrete, the strain tends to grow when the stress is kept at a constant level. This phenomenon is usually referred to as creep. Creep is an important physical property of concrete.

Multiscale Modeling Of Concrete For Determining Concrete Creep Compliance
Estimation of creep of concrete and the resulting long-term deflections and prestress losses are important factors in the design of Reinforced and Prestressed concrete structural elements. Rational modeling of creep is required to ensure the safety and serviceability of structural elements during their service life, while a number of models have been ...
