A Systematic Stiffness-Temperature Model for Polymers and Applications to the Prediction of Composite Behavior

Polymer matrix composites (PMCâ s) are now being used more and more extensively and over wider ranges of service conditions. Large changes in pressure, chemical environment or temperature influence the mechanical response of such composites. In the present effort, we focus on temperature, a param...
