## Abstract **Summary:** A mechanical model was developed to describe qualitatively and quantitatively the stress‐strain‐time behavior of a prepared shape memory crosslinked polyethylene during hot stretching, stress relaxation under 200% strain at high temperature and strain recovery of the heat s
## Abstract We present a coarse‐graining procedure to construct models of amorphous polymers. The method, which was applied to polyethylene, is based on a generation–relaxation strategy previously developed to provide independent atomistic microstructures. The coarse‐graining was performed by assig
## Abstract We examine the shape memory effect in polymer networks intended for biomedical, and specifically cardiovascular, applications. The polymers were synthesized by photopolymerization from a tert‐butyl acrylate monomer with a diethyleneglycol diacrylate crosslinker. Three‐point flexural tes
