This paper deals with prediction of the temperature rise in the stresscontrolled fatigue process of a glass-fiber-reinforced polyamide and the application of a temperature and frequency superposition procedure to the S-N curve. An experimental equation was derived to predict the temperature rise fro

Abstract
An experimental investigation of the rheological properties of glass fiberβreinforced polycarbonate melts and the extrusion of such compounds through capillary and slit dies is presented. The viscosityβshear rate function seems independent of instrument for coneβplate and capillary investigations. The presence of fibers increases the level of the viscosity. Normal stresses at fixed shear stress are also increased by the presence of fibers. The extrudate swell is decreased by the presence of fibers and surface roughness is increased. Fiber orientation increases and surface roughness decreases with increasing extrusion rate.

## Abstract Observations are reported for oscillatory torsion tests at several temperatures ranging from room temperature to 100βΒ°C on a polymer composite consisting of a polycarbonate matrix reinforced with short glass fibers. Constitutive equations are derived for the linear viscoelastic behavior
## Abstract In order to investigate the effect of a notch on the tensile properties of polycarbonate and 30% glass fiberβreinforced polycarbonate, two types of notched specimens were prepared. These notches were a sharp 60Β° notch and a dull notch with rounded tip 1.5 mm in radius at the base of the
