To make clear the compressive Theological property of fiber assemblies, we investigated the compressive creep behaviour of cotton fiber asssemblies, and the following conclusions were obtained:
(1) The compressive creep strain of cotton fiber assemblies increases with load, while it reaches the maximum at 30-40°C.
(2) The compressive creep strain ε
t of cotton fiber assemblies agrees with that of the Eyring's non-linear three element model, and is given as follows; ε
t=Y
0 ln(vt+1) where
t is time,
Y0 and
v are experimental constants.
