1. Representative temperature extension cycle sequence for WECB from Busycon canaliculatum.
Representative temperature extension cycle sequence for WECB from Busycon canaliculatum. Increasing the temperature of the water bath in which the specimen is being quasi-statically cycled results in a lessening of the yield stress and a recession of the Hookean region. At temperatures approaching 100°C, the Hookean region appears to be absent.
