| Abstract: | On the assumption that the strength characteristics of homogeneous polymer materials depend on the specific volume, equations are derived for the dependence of the strength or high-elastic limit on the hydrostatic component of the stress tensor and temperature. The ultimate strengths in simple tension, compression and shear are considered in relation to brittle and plastic fracture.Institute of Polymer Mechanics, Academy of Sciences of the Latvian SSR, Riga.
