A Method for the Correction of Finite Rise Time Effects in the Characterization of Non Linear viscoelastic Materials.

Abstract

A METHOD IS PRESENTED FOR THE CORRECTION OF THE EFFECT OF FINITE RISE TIME UPON STRESS RELAXATION EXPERIMENTS. The basis for the correction relies on the Farris nonlinear homogeneous theory. In the limit of zero nonlinearity the correction is shown to agree with the correction by linear theory. In the limit of very strong nonlinearity the correction is achieved by redefining the zero of time to be at the end of the rise time. (Author)
