Nonlinear Rheological Processes Modeling in Three-Layer Plates with a Polyurethane Foam Core.

It has been established that when nonlinear creep is taken into account, in contrast to the linear law, the stresses in the plate are not constant in time. In the faces, at the initial stage, the stresses increase with a subsequent return to the initial values, and in the filler, on the contrary, the stresses at the initial stage decrease. These results indicate the need to take into account the nonlinear creep of polyurethane foam in the calculation of sandwich panels.
