The latest edition of the definitive guide on the mechanical behaviours of polymers. In the newly revised fourth edition of Mechanical Properties of Solid Polymers, a team of distinguished researchers delivers an up-to-date discussion of all aspects of the mechanical behaviour of solid polymers. The book explores finite elastic behaviour, linear viscoelasticity, mechanical relaxations, mechanical anisotropy, non-linear viscoelasticity, yield behaviour,...
