Miêu tả
Tóm tắt:This text is an outgrowth or organized compilation of the notes the authors have used to teach an introductory course on the viscoelasticity of polymers for more than 30 years for the senior author and about 15 years for the junior author. Originally, the course was taught only to graduate students, but in recent years an effort has been made to teach a modification of the course to senior-level mechanical engineering students. The authors have long held the view that the lack of knowledge of the fundamental aspects of the time and temperature behavior of polymer materials is a serious shortcoming in undergraduate as well as graduate engineering education. This is especially important in our present society because the use of polymeric materials pervades our experience both in our daily lives and in our engineering profession. Still, the basic thrust of undergraduate education and even graduate education to some degree in the areas of mechanical and civil engineering is toward traditional materials of metal, concrete, etc. Until about 25 years ago, elementary undergraduate text books on materials contained little coverage of polymers. Today, many elemen tary materials texts have several chapters on polymers, but in general, the thrust of such courses is toward metals. Even the polymer coverage that is now included treats stress analysis of polymers using the same procedures as for metals and other materials and therefore often misleads the young engineer on the proper design of engineering plastics. Thus, it is not surprising that some structural products made from polymers are often poorly designed and do not have the durability and reliability of structures designed with metallic materials...
