TI  - Reliability of Free Inflation and Dynamic Mechanics Tests on the Prediction of 
      the Behavior of the Polymethylsilsesquioxane-High-Density Polyethylene 
      Nanocomposite for Thermoforming Applications.

AB  - Numerical modeling of the thermoforming process of polymeric sheets requires 
      precise knowledge of the viscoelastic behavior under conjugate effect pressure 
      and temperature. Using two different experiments, bubble inflation and dynamic 
      mechanical testing on a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) nanocomposite reinforced 
      with polymethylsilsesquioxane HDPE (PMSQ-HDPE) nanoparticles, material constants 
      for Christensen's model were determined by the least squares optimization. The 
      viscoelastic identification relative to the inflation test seemed to be the most 
      appropriate for the numerical study of thermoforming of a thin PMSQ-HDPE part. 
      For this purpose, the finite element method was considered.
