Abstract
In this contribution, we extend the analytical network-averaging concept (Khiêm and Itskov, 2016) to phase transition during strain-induced crystallization of natural rubber. To this end, a physically-based constitutive model describing the nonisothermal strain-induced crystallization is proposed. Accordingly, the spatial arrangement of polymer subnetworks is driven by crystallization nucleation and consequently alters the mesoscopic deformation...
