Inferring a Reliable Mechanical Stress Relaxation Spectrum via a Regularization-Quadratic Programming Technique
Abstract
A reliable technique to aid in the prediction of bulk polymer long term mechanical properties is discussed. This technique - regularization and quadratic programming - is applied to the standard NBS isobutylene Master Curve data of Tobolsky and Catsiff. The results show excellent agreement between the mechanical relaxation spectra achieved when no a priori functional form and the published wedge-box functional form are assumed.
