| Abstract: | The determination of confidence intervals of deformations was studied for an individual measurement and arithmetical mean common for all points of an experimental family of curves. From the experimental data on the creep of polyamide resin and five different analytical equations of physically nonlinear creep, the problems of the computer approximation of families of creep curves and the determination of the material parameters are discussed. A method is proposed for a quantitative evaluation of the degree of correspondence of the initial data to the similarity of isochronous creep curves and the similarity of the creep curves.Institute of Polymer Mechanics, Academy of Sciences of the Latvian SSR, Riga.
