Constitutive equations are developed in cyclic viscoplasticity of semicrystalline polymers with finite strains. Adjustable parameters in the stress-strain relations are found by fitting the experimental data. Ability of the model to describe the characteristic features of the mechanical behavior and to predict the viscoplastic response in cyclic tests is confirmed by comparison of the results of numerical simulation with observations in additional tests.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessConstitutive ModelingCyclic ViscoplasticityFinite DeformationsIsotactic PolypropyleneLow Density PolyethyleneArticle1410.1142/S20476841125003762-s2.0-85070239417Q3
