Plastic pre-compression and creep damage effects on the fracture toughness behaviour of Type 316H stainless steel [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The influence of inelastic damage in the form of plastic pre-strain and creep damage, on fracture toughness of Type 316H stainless steel has been examined.

Effect of local calibration of dynamic modulus and creep compliance models on predicted performance of asphalt mixes containing RAP

open access: yesInternational Journal of Pavement Research and Technology, 2018
MEPDG software can predict long term performance of the asphalt mixes based on asphalt input data. When laboratory measured data of an asphalt mix are not available, this software uses the predictive models to estimate the mix properties.

Wood creep data collection and unbiased parameter identification of compliance functions

open access: yesHolzforschung, 2020
Rising global emission have led to a renewed popularity of timber in building design, including timber-concrete tall buildings up to 18 stories. In spite of this surge in wood construction, there remains a gap in understanding of long-term structural ...

Interpretable Ensemble-Machine-Learning models for predicting creep behavior of concrete

open access: yesCement & Concrete Composites, 2021
This study aims to provide an efficient and accurate machine learning (ML) approach for predicting the creep behavior of concrete. Three ensemble machine learning (EML) models are selected in this study: Random Forest (RF), Extreme Gradient Boosting ...

Simulations of aging and plastic deformation in polymer glasses

open access: yes, 2007
We study the effect of physical aging on the mechanical properties of a model polymer glass using molecular dynamics simulations. The creep compliance is determined simultaneously with the structural relaxation under a constant uniaxial load below yield ...

Simultaneous Characterization of Relaxation, Creep, Dissipation, and Hysteresis by Fractional-Order Constitutive Models

open access: yesFractal and Fractional, 2021
We considered relaxation, creep, dissipation, and hysteresis resulting from a six-parameter fractional constitutive model and its particular cases.

Viscoelastic Characterization of Polymer-Modified Asphalt Binders of Pavement Applications

open access: yesApplied Rheology, 2003
Rutting is a primary reason of premature deterioration of asphalt highway pavements. Pavements constructed with polymer and other modifiers are showing improved performance.

A class of linear viscoelastic models based on Bessel functions

open access: yes, 2016
In this paper we investigate a general class of linear viscoelastic models whose creep and relaxation memory functions are expressed in Laplace domain by suitable ratios of modified Bessel functions of contiguous order. In time domain these functions are

Creep Behavior of Wood Plasticized by Moisture and Temperature

open access: yesBioResources, 2015
Moisture in wood acting as a plasticizer will strongly affect the wood’s viscoelastic properties. However, achieving the desired moisture content (MC) at elevated temperatures during creep tests is difficult.

Multiscale Creep Compliance of Epoxy Networks at Elevated Temperatures [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Mechanics, 2006
Epoxy networks are thermoset polymers for which an important structural length scale, molecular weight between crosslinks (M c), influences physical and mechanical properties. In the present work, creep compliance was measured for three aliphatic epoxy networks of differing M c using both macroscale torsion and ...
