Microscopic-Phenomenological Model of Glass Transition and Temperature Dependence of Viscosity—Part I: Foundations of the Model

The glass transition is described as a time- and history-independent singular event, which takes place in an interval dependent on the distribution width of molecular vibration amplitudes. The intrinsic glass transition is not seen as a relaxation phenomenon, but is characterized by a fixed volumetr...
