Abstract

The stress relaxation behavior of polypropylene (PP) was investigated at room temperature. Displacement controlled experiment was simulated using engineering computational software ANSYS and performed on PP. Both results were compared with each other. The utility of numerical simulation was also discussed. The experiment results are well in agreement with the numerical ones.
