Behaviour and modelling of two semi-crystalline polymers over a wide range of rates and temperatures
Schwenke, Einar (Doctoral theses at NTNU;2023:104, Doctoral thesis, 2023)Through this thesis, I seek to explore how to characterise and simulate the strain rate and temperature dependent material behaviour of semi-crystalline polymers. To this end, a cross-linked polyethylene and a polypropylene ... -
Cold impact performance of polypropylene (PP)
Schwenke, Einar (Master thesis, 2017)In this thesis, the ability of the SIMLab polymer model to represent the material behaviour of polypropylene used in the Toyota Yaris door trim, under impact loading, has been investigated. The overall goal was to attempt ... -
Cold impact performance of polypropylene (PP) - Oppførsel av støtpåkjent PP ved lav temperatur
Skjennum, Jørgen Gudbrand Frøyland; Engebakken, Anders (Master thesis, 2018)When Toyota develop new polymer components for their vehicles, experimental drop tests are conducted at -30 °C to evaluate the cold impact performance of the parts. The objective of this thesis is to replicate the behaviour ...
