AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE DYNAMIC TANGENT MODULI OF POLYETHYLENE

Abstract

The research presented in this thesis is on the study of the behavior of the dynamic tangent moduli of polyethylene under large quasi-static deformations. This involved both the determination of the complex shear modulus G* and the complex Youngs modulus E* as a function of longitudinal and torsional strains.
