Prediction of dimensional changes and residual stresses in injection molded plastic parts
A new model of solidification of liquid amorphous polymers between cooled parallel plates predicts the measured in-plane and through-thickness shrinkage of injection-molded plaques. The model uses a reference strain field to account for the melt that is forced or removed from the cavity during the p...
