Application of catastrophe theory to thermal shrinkage behavior of cold-drawn crystalline polymer solids

This study investigates the thermal shrinkage behavior of cold-drawn or necked crystalline polymer solids through a mathematical framework of catastrophe theory. While polymers necked by uniaxial stretching exhibit irreversible macroscopic plastic deformation, they demonstrate significant shape-memo...
