Distribution of nonliner relaxation (DNLR) approach of the annealing effects in semicristalline polymers: structure–property relation for high-density polyethylene (HDPE)

This work is devoted to the numerical and experimental study of annealing effects on microstructure and mechanical properties of the high-density polyethylene (HDPE). Uniaxiale tension tests are conducted at 25 °C in order to characterize the mechanical behavior of HDPE. The influence of the annealing treatment on the material microstructure is examined by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and microstructures are characterized using differential scanning calorimetry. The distribution of nonlinear relaxation approach is adopted to describe the mechanical response of virgin and annealed HDPE. Annealing effects are incorporated into the constitutive model by introducing the microstructure (crystallinity degree) evolution on the macroscopic response of the material. The numerical predictions of the model are in good agreement with experimental results for the different states of the material.     

Novel evolutionary behaviors of localized wave solutions and bilinear auto-Bäcklund transformations for the generalized (3+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation

Water waves are common phenomena in nature, which have attracted extensive attention of researchers. In the present paper, we first deduce five kinds of bilinear auto-Bäcklund transformations of the generalized (3+1)-dimensional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation starting from the specially exchange identities of the Hirota bilinear operators; then, we construct the N-soliton solutions and several new structures of the localized wave solutions which are studied by using the long wave limit method and the complex conjugate condition technique. In addition, the propagation orbit, velocity and extremum of the first-order lump solution on (x, y)-plane are studied in detail, and seven mixed solutions are summarized. Finally, the dynamical behaviors and physical properties of different localized wave solutions are illustrated and analyzed. It is hoped that the obtained results can provide a feasibility analysis for water wave dynamics.
