Tensile behavior of polycarbonate: Key aspects for accurate constitutive modelling and simulation

Polycarbonate (PC) is a thermoplastic polymer used in many engineering applications such as safety devices and aerospace components. However, the unique behavior of PC under tensile load and its effects on the estimation of its constitutive curve are often overlooked in the literature, neglecting to...
