4、njection molding process consists of four stages: filling, packing, cooling and ejection of product. During these processes, residual stress is produced due to high pressure and cooling, which induce the warpage and shrinkage of product.

For cooling

9、, the relaxation time increases and becomes comparable to the filling and packing time; therefore accurate prediction of thermal stress would require viscoelastic constitutive equations.But within the limit of infinitesimal strains variation the behavior of viscoelastic material is well described by

10、 the theory of linear viscoelasticity. Most injection mould products are very thin, we can take the flow direction as 1-dimensional and the local thickness direction as the 3-direction and build the local coordinates. The total stress tensor ij can be split into a hydrostatic pressure h P and an ext

13、 by three dimensional features of the part (bosses, ribs and other walls), so the in-plane strain is assumed to be equal to 0; (3) The normal stress 33 is constant in the thickness direction of the product and equals the reverse of cavity pressure; (4) As long as the cavity pressure is non-zero ( 0

15、 A minimum complexity approach is proposed to emphasize the process physics, which would result in a better understanding of the transition that takes place during the molding. The material used was ABS (Novodur P2X of Bayer). The material parameters and the main processing parameters are listed in

Therefore, the evolution of cavity pressure shows the variation of normal stress.
