Þtaking place at large deformations. According to Anand’s model, this
dissipative resistance evolves with plastic stretch in intermolecular mechanism or
total stretch in intermolecular mechanism. In the model derived in this chapter,
dissipative resistance (S M ) at large deformations in molecular network mechanism
evolves with plastic stretch in molecular network branch which actually controls
material response at large deformations (post-yield region). A third mechanism must
be added for true prediction of elastic recovery during unloading and cooling of a
pre-heated sample. It was argued that a second mechanism for molecular network
structure was introduced due to a necessity driven by an experimentally observed
complex response. However, constitutive model framework presented in this chapter
involves non-isothermal condition without introducing the additional third
mechanism.
Finally, from relation given by Eq. (7.196) and specific Helmholtz free energy
definitions in Eqs. (7.157), (7.164), and (7.182), temperature-dependent governing
