Abstract
In this Part I, of a two-part paper, we present a detailed continuum-mechanical development of a thermomechanically
coupled elasto-viscoplasticity theory to model the strain rate and temperature dependent largedeformation
response of amorphous polymeric materials. Such a theory, when further specialized (Part II)
should be useful for modeling and simulation of the thermo-mechanical response of components and structures
made from such materials, as well as for modeling a variety of polymer processing operations.
