Maxwell Material
A Maxwell material is the most simple model viscoelastic material showing properties of a typical liquid. It shows viscous flow on the long timescale, but additional elastic resistance to fast deformations. It is named for James Clerk Maxwell who proposed the model in 1867. It is also known as a Maxwell fluid. Definition The Maxwell model is represented by a purely viscous damper and a purely elastic spring connected in series, as shown in the diagram. In this configuration, under an applied axial stress, the total stress, \sigma_\mathrm and the total strain, \varepsilon_\mathrm can be defined as follows: :\sigma_\mathrm=\sigma_D = \sigma_S :\varepsilon_\mathrm=\varepsilon_D+\varepsilon_S where the subscript D indicates the stress–strain in the damper and the subscript S indicates the stress–strain in the spring. Taking the derivative of strain with respect to time, we obtain: :\frac = \frac + \frac = \frac + \frac \frac where ''E'' is the elastic modulu ...

Viscoelastic
In materials science and continuum mechanics, viscoelasticity is the property of materials that exhibit both viscous and elastic characteristics when undergoing deformation. Viscous materials, like water, resist shear flow and strain linearly with time when a stress is applied. Elastic materials strain when stretched and immediately return to their original state once the stress is removed. Viscoelastic materials have elements of both of these properties and, as such, exhibit time-dependent strain. Whereas elasticity is usually the result of bond stretching along crystallographic planes in an ordered solid, viscosity is the result of the diffusion of atoms or molecules inside an amorphous material.Meyers and Chawla (1999): "Mechanical Behavior of Materials", 98-103. Background In the nineteenth century, physicists such as Maxwell, Boltzmann, and Kelvin researched and experimented with creep and recovery of glasses, metals, and rubbers. Viscoelasticity was further examined in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Stress Relaxation
In materials science, stress relaxation is the observed decrease in stress in response to strain generated in the structure. This is primarily due to keeping the structure in a strained condition for some finite interval of time hence causing some amount of plastic strain. This should not be confused with creep, which is a constant state of stress with an increasing amount of strain. Since relaxation relieves the state of stress, it has the effect of also relieving the equipment reactions. Thus, relaxation has the same effect as cold springing, except it occurs over a longer period of time. The amount of relaxation which takes place is a function of time, temperature and stress level, thus the actual effect it has on the system is not precisely known, but can be bounded. Stress relaxation describes how polymers relieve stress under constant strain. Because they are viscoelastic, polymers behave in a nonlinear, non-Hookean fashion.Meyers and Chawla.

Non-Newtonian Fluids
A non-Newtonian fluid is a fluid that does not follow Newton's law of viscosity, i.e., constant viscosity independent of stress. In non-Newtonian fluids, viscosity can change when under force to either more liquid or more solid. Ketchup, for example, becomes runnier when shaken and is thus a non-Newtonian fluid. Many salt solutions and molten polymers are non-Newtonian fluids, as are many commonly found substances such as custard, toothpaste, starch suspensions, corn starch, paint, blood, melted butter, and shampoo. Most commonly, the viscosity (the gradual deformation by shear or tensile stresses) of non-Newtonian fluids is dependent on shear rate or shear rate history. Some non-Newtonian fluids with shear-independent viscosity, however, still exhibit normal stress-differences or other non-Newtonian behavior. In a Newtonian fluid, the relation between the shear stress and the shear rate is linear, passing through the origin, the constant of proportionality being the coeffic ...

Upper-convected Maxwell Model
The upper-convected Maxwell (UCM) model is a generalisation of the Maxwell material for the case of large deformations using the upper-convected time derivative. The model was proposed by James G. Oldroyd. The concept is named after James Clerk Maxwell. The model can be written as: : \mathbf + \lambda \stackrel = 2\eta_0 \mathbf where: * \mathbf is the stress tensor; * \lambda is the relaxation time; * \stackrel is the upper-convected time derivative of stress tensor: : \stackrel = \frac \mathbf + \mathbf \cdot \nabla \mathbf - (\nabla \mathbf)^T \cdot \mathbf - \mathbf \cdot (\nabla \mathbf) *\mathbf is the fluid velocity *\eta_0 is material viscosity at steady simple shear; *\mathbf is the deformation rate tensor. Case of the steady shear For this case only two components of the shear stress became non-zero: :T_=\eta_0 \dot \gamma \, and :T_=2 \eta_0 \lambda ^2 \, where \dot \gamma is the shear rate. Thus, the upper-convected Maxwell model predicts for the simple shear ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Oldroyd-B Model
The Oldroyd-B model is a constitutive model used to describe the flow of viscoelastic fluids. This model can be regarded as an extension of the upper-convected Maxwell model and is equivalent to a fluid filled with elastic bead and spring dumbbells. The model is named after its creator James G. Oldroyd. The model can be written as: \mathbf + \lambda_1 \stackrel = 2\eta_0 (\mathbf + \lambda_2 \stackrel) where: * \mathbf is the deviatoric part of the stress tensor; * \lambda_1 is the relaxation time; * \lambda_2 is the retardation time = \frac\lambda_1 ; * \stackrel is the upper-convected time derivative of stress tensor: \stackrel = \frac \mathbf + \mathbf \cdot \nabla \mathbf -( (\nabla \mathbf)^T \cdot \mathbf + \mathbf \cdot (\nabla \mathbf)) ; *\mathbf is the fluid velocity; *\eta_0 is the total viscosity composed of solvent and polymer components, \eta_0= \eta_s + \eta_p ; *\mathbf is the deformation rate tensor or rate of strain tensor, \mathbf = \frac \left boldsymbol\n ...

Burgers Material
A Burgers material is a viscoelastic material having the properties both of elasticity and viscosity. It is named after the Dutch physicist Johannes Martinus Burgers. Overview Maxwell representation Given that one Maxwell material has an elasticity E_1 and viscosity \eta_1, and the other Maxwell material has an elasticity E_2 and viscosity \eta_2, the Burgers model has the constitutive equation : \sigma + \left( \frac + \frac \right) \dot\sigma + \frac \ddot\sigma = \left( \eta_1 + \eta_2 \right) \dot\varepsilon + \frac \ddot\varepsilon where \sigma is the stress and \varepsilon is the strain. Kelvin representation Given that the Kelvin material has an elasticity E_1 and viscosity \eta_1, the spring has an elasticity E_2 and the dashpot has a viscosity \eta_2, the Burgers model has the constitutive equation : \sigma + \left( \frac + \frac + \frac \right) \dot\sigma + \frac \ddot\sigma = \eta_2\dot\varepsilon + \frac \ddot\varepsilon where \sigma is the ...

Dynamic Modulus
Dynamic modulus (sometimes complex modulusThe Open University (UK), 2000. ''T838 Design and Manufacture with Polymers: Solid properties and design'', page 30. Milton Keynes: The Open University.) is the ratio of stress to strain under ''vibratory conditions'' (calculated from data obtained from either free or forced vibration tests, in shear, compression, or elongation). It is a property of viscoelastic materials. Viscoelastic stress–strain phase-lag Viscoelasticity is studied using dynamic mechanical analysis where an oscillatory force (stress) is applied to a material and the resulting displacement (strain) is measured. *In purely elastic materials the stress and strain occur in phase, so that the response of one occurs simultaneously with the other. *In purely viscous materials, there is a phase difference between stress and strain, where strain lags stress by a 90 degree (\pi/2 radian) phase lag. *Viscoelastic materials exhibit behavior somewhere in between that of purely ...

Creep (deformation)
In materials science, creep (sometimes called cold flow) is the tendency of a solid material to move slowly or deform permanently under the influence of persistent mechanical stresses. It can occur as a result of long-term exposure to high levels of stress that are still below the yield strength of the material. Creep is more severe in materials that are subjected to heat for long periods and generally increases as they near their melting point. The rate of deformation is a function of the material's properties, exposure time, exposure temperature and the applied structural load. Depending on the magnitude of the applied stress and its duration, the deformation may become so large that a component can no longer perform its function – for example creep of a turbine blade could cause the blade to contact the casing, resulting in the failure of the blade. Creep is usually of concern to engineers and metallurgists when evaluating components that operate under high stresses or hig ...
