Identification of the Constitutive Behaviour of Dental Composite Cements During Curing.
This paper is concerned with the qualitative and quantitative description of the constitutive behaviour of dental composites during the curing process. Both generalized Kelvin- and Maxwell-models are studied and the parameters characterizing these models are determined by the means of an identification procedure based on the matching of model calculations to experimental data. This procedure is illustrated by means of an example. It is found that the Maxwell-model fits the experimental data better than the Kelvin Model.
