Strain hardening behavior of HDPE geomembranes [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
The strain hardening behavior is a good measure for the stress cracking resistance of HDPE geomembranes. Influences of the testing parameters temperature and cross head speed on the strain hardening modulus in material testing of PE were quantified.
