Figure 1: Small-scale graben with lobate scarps. Figure 3: Virtanen graben in the farside highlands (∼17.8 ° N, 180.8° E). The extensional stresses that formed the graben located in the back-limb ...

This is because the plastic is constantly expanding or stretching in those processes. Two polymers may have identical shear flow behavior, but they could exhibit different extensional flow behavior ...

Extensional flows dominate many polymer processes, including blow molding, film blowing, fiber spinning, thermoforming and many others. The rheology of polymeric materials under extensional flows can ...
