โฆ Synopsis
Repetitive creep and recovery tests in bituminous materials-asphalt and asphalt paving mix are studied at high service temperatures. The non-exponential-stretched exponential type of continuous retardation spectrum is defined and used for the calculation of creep compliance function in repetitive shear and tensile creep and recovery experiments and also in the wheel tracking test on asphalt paving mix. It is shown that the used model, with only five adjustable parameters, can describe the test quite well. The model is also adequate for the description of the composite compliance function constructed from the linear viscoelastic data and the apparently nonlinear compliance function obtained in the wheel tracking test, for asphalt paving mix.

Breeding and selection was used to generate a population of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) from cultivar Osceola with a high embryogenic capacity. Somatic embryos were obtained from immature cotyledons of white clover placed onto EC6 basal medium containing 40 mg L(-1) of 2,4-D and 6% sucrose. T
The present work reports a discrete stress-dependent, complex compliance spectra method that may be used to predict the mechanical response of nonlinear viscoelastic polymers during creep and recovery processes. The method is based on the observation that the real and imaginary parts of a discrete c
Creep curves for eight different graphites showed that the creep strain obeyed the well known equation E= At". Since the mechanisms controlling creep rate through stress and temperature are dependent on structure, it seems inappropriate to analyse the coefficients of this equation in detail. Activat
