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... |
