ENDOCHRONIC PRESENTATION OF THE THEORY OF NONLINEAR CREEP BY RABOTNOV

Georgy D. Fedorovsky

Abstract

Updating the equation of nonlinear Rabotnovs theory of creep with the help of endochronic concept is made. Analytical expression for determining functions of this transformation is received in the case of Rabotnov nucleus for creep and its nonlinear function as a power expression. The complex form of scale for generalized time is found. Additional endochronic generalization of Rabotnovs theory is offered that allows describe accelerated and sloweddown restoration media (hardening and softening).
