This pioneering book presents the basic theory, experimental methods, experimental results and solution of boundary value problems in a readable, useful way to designers as well as research workers and students. The mathematical background required has been kept to a minimum and supplemented by explanations where it has been necessary to introduce specialized mathematics. Also, appendices have been included to provide sufficient background in Laplace transforms and in step functions.
Chapters 1 and 2 contain an introduction and historic review of creep. As an aid to the reader a background on stress, strain, and stress analysis is provided in Chapters 3 and 4, an introduction to linear viscoelasticity is found in Chapter 5 and linear viscoelastic stress analysis in Chapter 6. In the next six chapters the multiple integral representation of nonlinear creep and relaxation, and simplifications to single integral forms and incompressibility, are examined at length. After a consideration of other representations, general relations are derived, then expanded to components of stress or strain for special cases. Both constant stress (or strain) and variable states are described, together with methods of determining material constants. Conversion from creep to relaxation, effects of temperature and stress analysis problems in nonlinear materials are also treated here.
Finally, Chapter 13 discusses experimental methods for creep and stress relaxation under combined stress. This chapter considers especially those experimental problems which must be solved properly when reliable experimental results of high precision are required. Six appendices present the necessary mathematical background, conversion tables, and more rigorous derivations than employed in the text. An extensive updated bibliography completes the book.

Very meticulous!
Color: White02
Update: I forgot to mention battery life. The battery will not last long for large homes. The vac will have to dock and recharge if you have a large home. I still consider it a worthwhile purchase! It’s a nice vac for a daily surface clean. It’s not going to get everything. I would recommend doing a deep clean with your normal vac once a week. Also when running it for the first time I recommend skipping the mapping function and just vacuum. It’s going to map while cleaning! The app is somewhat confusing for me as far as setting up barriers and areas to avoid. I love that you can set it to clean whenever. It’s fairly quiet as well. I have mine set to clean at 5 am and it woke me up but I went right back to sleep! It will get under your kitchen cabinets and picks up all those crumbs! I haven’t tried the mop function so I can’t comment on that. It will go row by row and my carpet looks great when it’s finished.

Amazing!!!
Color: White
I purchased the OKP Life robot vacuum in 2024, and as of 2026, it continues to perform exceptionally well. It has proven to be a highly reliable product, exceeding my expectations in terms of durability and long-term performance. This device has significantly simplified my cleaning routine and saved me a considerable amount of time. Its suction power is sufficient to effectively remove dust, crumbs, and pet hair without difficulty. Additionally, it navigates around furniture efficiently and rarely becomes obstructed. Another notable advantage is its relatively quiet operation compared to traditional vacuum cleaners, allowing it to be used at any time without causing disruption. It is also very user-friendly and maintains a consistently clean environment with minimal effort. Overall, I highly recommend this vacuum. It is dependable, well-constructed, and represents excellent value for its performance.

Broke after 2 months.
Color: Bright White
This is 2 months old, it worked fantastic for 2 months It cleaned everything knew where it was going found its way home every time. Now it won't move it's turned on The brushes are spinning there's no way to turn it off and the button isn't working to power it down I have to let it sit and run for hours on its back so that it will die because there is no way to open it that I can find and there's no power off switch other than the one on the top which is not responding to me touching it.
