Popis: | The experimental results presented in Part I of this study were used to evaluate the predictive capabilities of two viscoelastic constitutive models. One of the models, developed by Xia and Ellyin, is in a differential form. The other, which is a modified Schapery model by Lai and Bakker, is in an integral form. The results of the comparison indicate that the Xia-Ellyin constitutive model simulated the experimental observations well. This was attributed to the existence of a general rule that delineates the loading and unloading parts of the cyclic response. The modified Schapery model was able to predict the general trends of the deformation behavior; however, it was unable to correctly simulate the unloading behavior. This difference became more pronounced when the applied cyclic stress/strain was high. At high applied loads, the material response became more nonlinear. POLYM. ENG.
