Book ChapterDOI
In vivo study of human skin rheology
TL;DR: In this paper, a light-weight, portable strip biaxial skin transducer was built to measure the stress-strain behavior of human skin in vivo, and data were analyzed in the context of the finite elasticity theory using a pseudo stored energy function.
Book ChapterDOI
Extensional Flow of Dilute Polymer Solution
S. T. J. Peng,Robert F. Landel +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a semi-empirical scaling law was established to relate the concentration, c, temperature, T, and deformation rate for tubeless siphon or Fano flow, from which the tensile viscosity, ηT, is calculated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationship between maximum extensibility of networks and the degree of crosslinking and primary molecular weight
R. F. Fedors,Robert F. Landel +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the relationship between network chain concentration and the maximum value of the extension ratio at break is discussed, and experimental data obtained from the literature are then used to test the theoretically derived dependence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Dependence of Relative Volume on Strain for an SBR Vulcanizate
R. F. Fedors,Robert F. Landel +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the volume-extension data for an SBR-peroxide vulcanizate were presented. And it was shown that Gee's expression, in conjunction with the experimental stress-strain response for the vulcanizer, lea...
Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced‐variable mechanical characterization of styrene‐butadiene rubber with varying crosslink density, temperature, and finite strain states
R. J. Arenz,Robert F. Landel +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a single master logarithmic stress relaxation curve of reduced modulus as a function of reduced time is established for a styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) system, accounting for the effects of crosslinking density, temperature, and time.
