Relationship between lifetime under creep and constant stress rate for polymer-matrix composites

The present article reviews two existing theoretical approaches for creep failure criteria of viscoelastic materials. One criterion is based on the continuum damage mechanics (CDM) and the other is based on the fracture mechanics extended to viscoelastic materials. Although both theoretical framewor...
