Abstract

The problems of stress relaxation analysis in thin-walled cylindrical shells made of linear viscoelastic materials under uniaxial and biaxial loading have been solved. The analysis is based on a there-dimensional model of viscoelasticity starting from the hypothesis of the deviators proportionality. The viscoelastic properties of a material are given with relationships that establish the dependence between stress and strain intensities as well as between the mean stress and volumetric strain by the Bolzmann-Volterra type equation. The kernels of relaxation intensity and volumetric relaxation are given with the Rabotnov exponential-fractional functions. The parameters of relaxation kernels are determined from creep test result using the relationships between creep kernels under the complex stress state and creep kernels under the one- dimensional stress state. The problems of the analysis of normal and tangential stresses relaxation in thin-walled cylindrical shells made of high density polyethylene “ПЭВП” under uniaxial tension, pure torsion and combined tension with torsion loading have been solved and experimentally approved.
