[QUOTE="jrmichler, post: 6612360, member: 638574"] I did a quick search using terms [B]stress strain curve polyethylene[/B]. The first hits discussed strain softening, strain rate, and the effect of temperature. The plot below shows the effect of strain softening. It's the portion of the stress strain curve from a to c. [ATTACH type="full"]298696[/ATTACH] Also, polyethylene comes in many forms - some of which are LDPE, medium density, HDPE, UHMWPE. They have large differences in material properties. I suggest that you do some searching of the material properties of your type of polyethylene and also polymers in general. Pay special attention to strain softening. [/QUOTE]
