    Uniaxial creep property and viscoelastic–plastic modelling of ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) foil

    Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE) foil has been widely used in spatial structures for its light weight and high transparency. This paper studies short- and long-term creep properties of ETFE foil. Two series...
