Describes principles for predicting the defor mation and strength of poly meric materials and composites on the basis of intensification and accel eration of relaxation and failure process es by such factors as temperature, pres sure, stress, and loading methods. Prediction of the Deformation Properties of Polymeric and Composite Materials also discusses superposition methods, methods of equivalent damage and failure, and quasi-static test methods. Examines the prediction of deformation properties under the complex stress states preva lent in real structures. Generalizes basic experimental and theoretical results for several classes of polymeric materials, as well as composites, polymer blends, and multicomponent polymeric systems. Contents: • Viscoelastic Behavior of Polymeric and Composite Materials and the Principles of Prediction • Prediction of Deformation Properties • Complex Thermorheological Behavior and the Complex Stress State • Prediction of Volumetric Creep Deformation of Polymeric Materials • Prediction of Creep Polymeric and Composite Materials in Shear and Tension Under Hydrostatic Pressure • Long-Term Strength A.
