Determining Deformation Transition in Polyethylene under Tensile Loading
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The multi-relaxation (MR) test was developed based on the concept that stress relaxation behavior can be used to reflect the material state of polyethylene (PE) under tension. On the basis of this concept, critical stroke for the onset of plastic deformation in the crystalline phase, named the first critical stroke, was determined using the MR test. Results from wide angle X-ray scattering suggest that phase transformation occurred in the crystalline phase of PE after the specimen was stretched beyond the first critical stroke. In this work, the MR test was applied to six PEs of different mass densities to determine their first critical strokes and the corresponding total and quasi-static (QS) stress values. The results show that the first critical stroke had very similar values among the six PEs. More interestingly, the ratio of the QS stress at the first critical stroke to the yield stress from the standard tensile test showed little dependence on PE density. Therefore, it was possible to use the popular short-term tensile test to characterize the critical QS component of the applied stress to initiate plastic deformation in the crystalline phase, which is expected to play a significant role on the long-term, load-carrying applications of PE.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
