Stress relaxation after low and high-rate deformation of polyurethanes

Polymers possess a wide range of mechanical behaviours depending upon the temperature and loading rate. An often-overlooked aspect is relaxation, important because it acts over a wide range of time periods and begins as soon as the polymer is loaded. In the research presented here, the relaxation be...
