Abstract: Constitutive equations are derived for the isothermal viscoelastic response of glassy polymers at small strains. An amorphous polymer is modeled as a composite material consisting of a temporary ...

Abstract: Optimal design problems arising in mechanics of growing composite viscoelastic and elastic solids subjected to aging are considered. The growth means a continuous mass influx to the body surface. ...
