Uni-axial quasi-static tests at strain rates 10-5, 10-4, 10-3,10-2 and 10-1 s-1 and dynamic compressive tests at strain rates 1679, 2769,5000 and 8200 s-1 have been carried out to study the mechanical behavior for polycarbonate used in the avigation industry. The stress–strain curves of polycarbonate in the strain-rate range from 10-5 to 8200 s-1 have been obtained. The effects of the strain rate on yield phenomenon and rate-dependent mechanical behavior are discussed. A plastic flow law based on the DSGZ rate-temperature-dependent constitutive model was used to describe the mechanical behavior of polycarbonate in the strain-rate range from 10-5 to 103 s-1. The results at the six strain rates are in excellent agreement with the experimental data, which illustrates that the constitutive model can describe the mechanical behavior for polycarbonate at low and high strain rates perfectly.

Abstract Uncured rubber possesses remarkable hyperelastic and viscoelastic properties while it undergoes large deformation; therefore, it has wide application prospects and attracts great research interests from academia and industry. In this paper, a nonlinear constitutive model with two parallel networks is developed to describe the mechanical response of uncured rubber. The constitutive model is incorporated with the Eying model to describe the hysteresis phenomenon and viscous flow criterion, and the hyperelastic properties under large deformation are captured by a non-Gaussian chain molecular network model. Based on the model, the mechanical behaviors of hyperelasticity, viscoelasticity and hysteresis under different strain rates are investigated. Furthermore, the constitutive model is employed to estimate uniaxial tensile, cyclic loading–unloading and multistep tensile relaxation mechanical behaviors of uncured rubber, and the prediction results show good agreement with the test data. The nonlinear mechanical constitutive model provides an efficient method for predicting the mechanical response of uncured rubber materials.

In the paper, we discuss the development of a model for PZT bimorph actuators used to power micro-air vehicles including Robobee. Due to highly dynamic drive regimes required for the actuators, models must quantify the nonlinear, hysteretic, and rate-dependent behavior inherent to PZT in these regimes. We employ the homogenized energy model (HEM) framework to model the actuator dynamics and numerically we illustrate the capability of the model to characterize the inherent hysteresis. This provides a comprehensive model, which can be inverted and implemented for certain control regimes.
