摘要

The study of the strain rate dependency of the mechanical behavior is an experimental challenge, especially for cellular and architected polymers. For these materials, two main contributions are intertwined: material (visco-elastic or elasto-visco-plastic base materials) and structural effects (gas flowing, dynamic buckling). Separating these effects is a key point to investigate their contribution to the strain-rate dependency of cellular polymers. Based on an experimental methodology using a time-temperature superposition approach, these effects and their contribution are discussed in this article. Dynamic Mechanical Analysis was used between \(-80^{\circ }\) C and \(150^{\circ }\) C and between 0.01 Hz and 1 kHz to study this superposition at small strains. Quasi-static and dynamic tests under large strains were conducted under a large temperature range to find and study a time-temperature superposition under large strains. The comparison between both equivalence highlights the predominance of structural effects for the strain rate dependency when the constitutive material are in a rubbery state. Otherwise, the strain rate dependency is mainly caused by the visco-elastic behavior of the constitutive materials and could be well predicted by a rheological model.
