Evaluating the Residual Stress and Its Effect on the Quasi-Static Stress in Polyethylene Pipes

Residual stress is generated during the production process. It can significantly affect the mechanical performance of pressurized polymer pipes. In this paper, six polyethylene (PE) pipes, including three high-density PEs (HDPE) and three medium-density PEs (MDPE) provided by different suppliers, we...
