Abstract

Uniaxial experiments clarify that the mechanical behaviour of PTFE compounds depends strongly on the amount of filler particles. In order to describe these dependencies, a finite endochronic viscoplastic material model based on material isomorphisms has been applied to various glass fibre filled PTFE compounds. The model allows to characterize viscoplastic material behaviour with equilibrium hysteresis using a rate-independent endochronic elastoplastic model in parallel connection with a nonlinear Maxwell model.
