Principles of polymer engineering

TLDR
In this article, the elastic properties of polymeric solids and their properties of rubber are discussed. But they focus on the structure of the molecule rather than the properties of the solids.

Interaction between collapsing bubble and viscoelastic solid: Numerical modelling and simulation

TL;DR: In this article, a fluid-solid interaction algorithm is developed to study the interaction between a collapsing bubble and a deformable viscoelastic solid, which is accomplished by coupled boundary-element (BE) and finite element (FE) calculations incorporating a Zener type model.

Evaluierung von EVA-Degradationsprozessen in Si-Photovoltaikmodulen mittels 2D-Lumineszenz

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the prospects of employing spatially resolved (2D-) luminescence as a non-invasive method for the characterization of the ethylene-vinyl-acetate (EVA) encapsulation material in photovoltaic (PV) modules.

Theory of the deformation of aligned polyethylene

TL;DR: Solitons are proposed as the agents of plastic and viscoelastic deformation in aligned polyethylene and interactions between straight, parallel molecules are mapped rigorously onto the Frenkel–Kontorova model, and an equation of motion for solitons is derived.

Creep and Recovery Behavior of Compression Molded Low Density Polyethylene/Cellulose Composites

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used the William-Landel-Ferry (WLF) model to predict the long time behavior of the polymer composites by shifting the curves along the logarithmic time axis.
