Investigation of Viscoelastic-Creep and Mechanical-Hysteresis Behaviors of Hydrostatically Stressed Crystal Using the Phase Field Crystal Method

Figure 3

Hysteresis behavior regarding the SLS model. (a) Complex moduli, storage modulus (solid line on -axis), loss modulus (dashed line on -axis) and loss tangent factor (dense dashed line on -axis) established by the SLS model at conditions , , and and frequency, (-axis), ranges between 0.01 and 100: box area depicts Figure 12(b). (b) Amplitude ratio, (-axis), at frequency, (-axis), ranges between 0.004 and 10. (c) System response schematic demonstrates the phase lag between the stress or pressure input at time , (solid line), and the strain response at time , (dashed line). (d) Mechanical-hysteresis schematic plot; strain response at time , (-axis), vs. stress or pressure input at time , (-axis).
