This report provides a review of the technical literature related to the creep behavior of fiber
reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. The review presented here was directed toward those …

The long-term behaviour of±45°-angle-ply laminates of carbon/epoxy was studied. Due to
the absence of 0°-layers angle-ply laminates are subject to cyclic creep. The creep strain …

This study introduces a numerical algorithm for nonlinear thermo-mechanical viscoelastic
analyses of orthotropic composite materials and structures that follow thermo-rheologically …

Various types of matrix dominated failures in polymer matrix composites (PMC) are
reviewed. Current methods to evaluate the modulus degradation of PMC materials are …

The effects of temperature on the tensile creep of continuous random fiber glass mat
thermoplastic composite (GMT) have been studied following an accelerated characterization …

This chapter provides an overview of viscoelastic behavior in composite materials. Time-
dependent behavior in composites may be either desirable or undesirable depending on the …

The separator plays a critical role in the safety of lithium-ion batteries. To predict the
structural integrity of polymeric separators in abuse scenarios, understanding the thermo …

The current paper describes the utilization of a thermodynamic based analytical nonlinear
viscoelastic approach to represent lamina properties. Test data to verify the analysis for both …

Models are presented for describing the time dependent viscoelastic and viscoplastic stress-
strain relationships of unidirectional fiber reinforced thermoset matrix composites exposed to …

A finite element formulation for analyzing interlaminar stress fields in nonlinear anisotropic
viscoelastic laminated composites is presented including a hygrothermal formulation …
