Abstract

A phenomenologically motivated small strain model and a finite strain generalframework to simulate the curing process of polymer have been developed anddiscussed in our recently published papers [1, 2, 3, 4]. In order to illustrate the capabilityof the finite strain framework proposed earlier, only...
