Abstract

The mechanical equation of state (MEOS) must relate to the full strain and stress tensor and it must predict not only the steady-state creep contribution (if any) but also the transient creep which follows every change in the stress system. In this chapter we indicate the progress that is being made to arrive at such an equation and the resultant equation that has been developed.
