Viscoelasticity can be studied using Dynamic Mechanical Analysis (DMA) during Nanoindentation. By applying controlled oscillatory stress the resulting strain can easily be measured. An elastic material will have stress and strain in phase while a viscous-elastic material will have strain lagging stress. In many applications during quality control and R&D, it is important to reliably test this behavior.

Respected sir/Madam,

I am Devarajan.K Doing M.Tech Engineering design . I am currently doing projects in  Optimisation of influence of rolling paramters in cold rolling process . For this i choosed the following input parameters of rolling process

1. Roller Diameter

2.Roller Speed

3. Friction Coefficient

4.Inlet material thickness

5.% of reductions

I was pointed to this article, which was a good read. A link to the article in PDF is also provided here (author's home page).
