Chemical crosslinking is the most widely used method for hydrogel preparations. We prepared a hydrogel using chitosan catechol/polyvinyl alcohol and sodium tetraborate decahydrate (Na₂B₄O₇·10H₂O). The formation of hydrogels often presents inconsistent results and issues according to the reaction scale. Therefore, we measured and analyzed the self-healing property and viscoelasticity of hydrogels attributed to scale-up synthesis using a rheometer.

The memory response of nonlocal systematical formulation size-dependent coupling of viscoelastic deformation and thermal fields for piezoelectric materials with dual-phase lag heat conduction law is constructed. The method of the matrix exponential, which constitutes the basis of the state-space approach of modern control theory, is applied to the non-dimensional equations. The resulting formulation together with the Laplace transform technique is applied to solve a problem of a semi-infinite piezoelectric rod subjected to a continuous heat flux with constant time rates. The inversion of the Laplace transforms is carried out using a numerical approach. Some comparisons of the impacts of nonlocal parameters and time-delay constants for various forms of kernel functions on thermal spreads and thermo-viscoelastic response are illustrated graphically.

The reliability problems of flip chip packages subjected to temperature change during the packaging process mainly occur due to mismatches in the coefficients of thermal expansion as well as features with time-dependent material properties. Resin molding compounds like glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites used as the dielectric layer in printed circuit boards (PCB) strongly exhibit viscoelastic behavior, which causes their Young's moduli to not only be temperature-dependent but also time-dependent. In this study, the stress relaxation and creep tests were used to characterize the viscoelastic properties of the glass fiber reinforced epoxy composite. Using the viscoelastic properties, finite element analysis (FEA) was employed to simulate thermal loading in the pre-baking process and predict thermal warpage. Furthermore, the effect of viscoelastic features for the major polymeric material on the dielectric layer in the PCB (the glass fiber reinforced epoxy composite) was investigated using FEA.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the viscoelastic properties related to handling characteristics of composite resins, Methods: A custom designed vertical oscillation rheometer (VOR) was used for rheological measurements of composites. The VOR consists of three parts: (1) a measuring unit, (2) a deformation induction unit and (3) a force detecting unit, Two medium viscous composites, Z100 and Z250 and two packable composites, P60 and SureFil were tested. The viscoelastic material function, including complex modulus $E^{*}$ and phase angle ${\delta}$, were measured. A dynamic oscillatory test was used to evaluate the storage modulus (E'), loss modulus (E") and loss tangent ($tan{\delta}$) of the composites as a function of frequency ($\omega$) from 0.1 to 20 Hz at $23^{\circ}C$. Results: The E' and E" increased with increasing frequency and showed differences in magnitude between brands. The $E^{*}s$ of composites at ${\omega}{\;}={\;}2{\;}Hz$, normalized to that of Z100, were 2.16 (Z250), 4,80 (P60) and 25.21 (SureFil). The magnitudes and patterns of the change of $tan{\delta}$ of composites with increasing frequency were significantly different between brands. The relationships between the complex modulus $E^{*}$, the phase angle ${\delta}$ and the frequency \omega were represented by frequency domain phasor form, $E^{*}{\;}(\omega){\;}={\;}E^{*}e^{i{\delta}}{\;}={\;}E^{*}{\angle}{\delta}$. Conclusions: The viscoelasticity of composites that influences handling characteristics is significant different between brands, The VOR is a relatively simple device for dynamic, mechanical analysis of high viscous dental composites. The locus of frequency domain phasor plots in a complex plane is a valuable method of representing the viscoelastic properties of composites.

Plastics is commonly used in consumer electronics because of it is high strength per unit mass and good productivity. But. using, transporting, and keeping of plastic component was happened post-deformation. As time goes by and temperature is changed, the post-deformation causes the problems of exterior design and performance. But, it is difficult to estimate the post-deformation by only thermal deformation analysis. Also, the estimation technique of the pest-deformation must be easily applied to product development and it should be reliable because development time of product is limited. In the paper. the process to predict the post deformation under cyclic thermal loadings was suggested. The process was applied to the real panel, and the deformation predicted by the analysis was compared with that of real test, which showed the possibility of applying the suggested process to predict the post deformation of plastic product under thermal loadings.

A series of hydrophobically associating fluorinated amphiphilic polyacrylamide copolymers with remarkably high heat resistance and salt tolerance were synthesized by free radical micellar copolymerization, using acrylamide (AM) and sodium 2-acrylamido-tetradecane sulfonate ($AMC_{14}S$) as amphiphilic monomers, and 2-(perfluorooctyl) ethyl acrylate (PFHEA) as hydrophobic monomer. The structure of the terpolymer was characterized by FTIR, $^1H$ NMR and $^{19}F$ NMR. The solution properties of the terpolymers were investigated in details, and the results showed that the terpolymer solution had strong intermolecular hydrophobic association as the concentration exceeded the critical association concentration 1.5 g/L. The terpolymer solution possessed high surface activity, viscoelasticity, excellent heat resistance, salt tolerance and shearing resistance. The viscosity retention rate of copolymer solution was as high as 59.9% under the condition of fresh wastewater, $85^{\circ}C$ and a 60-days aging test.

PURPOSES : The first generation of wide base tires introduced in the early 1980s was found to cause a significant increase in pavement damage compared to dual-tire assemblies. However, wide base tires have evolved considerably, and a new generation of wide base tire is thought to be comparable to conventional dual tires for pavement damage. A challenge associated with using wide base tires is the accurate quantification of pavement damage induced by these tires. The objective of this study was to investigate the responses of flexible pavement to continuously moving vehicular loading under various tire configurations. METHODS : The comparison of the strain/stress responses of full-depth pavement caused by conventional dual tire assembly and new generation of wide-base tires was performed. The FE model incorporates linear viscoelasticity of asphalt material and continuous moving load using implicit dynamic analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS : The result demonstrates that the new wide-base tires caused slightly more fatigue damage and less primary rutting damage in HMA layer than a dual-tire assembly, but caused more secondary rutting damage in subgrade than a dual tire assembly.

Understanding viscoelastic properties of composite materials is essential for the design and analysis of composite structures. Specially, the loss factor and Young's modulus must be known to develop finite element codes for a composite structure with several damping materials. In this study, an advanced technique for obtaining accurate loss factor and Young's modulus of a composite structure is introduced based on the method of American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM). The loss factor and Young's modulus of a composite structure are measured for different temperatures by performing the test in a vibration measurement room where temperature can be controllable from 5 to 45 Celsius.

One of the most significant problems in the processing of composite materials is residual stresses. The residual stresses may be high enough to cause cracking in the matrix even before external loads are applied and can degrade the integrity of composite structures. In this study, thermo-viscoelastic residual stresses occurred in the polymeric composite cylinder are investigated. This type of structure is used for the launch vehicle fuselage. The time and degree of cure dependent thermo-viscoelastic constitutive equations are developed and coupled with a thermo-chemical process model. These equations are solved with the finite element method to predict the residual stresses in the composite structures during cure. A launch vehicle experiences high thermal loads during flight and re-entry due to aerodynamic heating or propulsion heat, and the thermal loads may cause thermal buckling on the structure. In this study the thermal buckling analysis of composite cylinders are performed. Two boundary conditions such as all clamped and all simply supported are used for the analysis. The effects of laminates stacking sequences, shapes and residual stresses on the critical buckling temperatures of composite cylinders are investigated. The thermal buckling analysis is performed using ABAQUS.

The present study has numerically predicted both the flow -induced and thermally-induced residual stresses and birefringence in injection o. injection/compression molded center -gated disks. Analysis system for entire molding process was developed based on an ap propriate physical modeling including a nonlinear viscoelastic fluid model, stress-optical law, a linear viscoelastic solid model, free volume theory for density relaxation phenomena and a photoviscoelasticity and so on. Part I presents physical modeling a nd typical numerical analysis results of residual stresses and birefringence in the injection molded center-gated disk. Thermal residual stress was found to be extensional near the center, compressive near the surface and tend to become toward tensional at the surface. A double-hump profile was obtained across the thickness in birefringence distribution: nonzero birefringence is found to be thermally induced, the outer peak is due to the shear flow and subsequent stress relaxation during the filling stage a nd the inner peak is due to the additional shear flow and stress relaxation during the packing stage. Predicted birefringence including both the flow -induced and thermally-induced one becomes quite similar to the experimental one.
