     the deformation behavior of two unfilled engineering thermoplastics, ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (uhmwpe) and polycarbonate (pc), has been investigated in creep test conditions. it has been found that a loading history (prior to the creep test) comprising of loading to a maximum stress or strain value followed by partial unloading to arrive at the target stress value can greatly modify the strain-time behavior. under such a test protocol, while the expected increase in strain during creep (constant tensile load) is observed, at relatively low creep stresses specimens have also demonstrated a monotonic decrease in strain. in an intermediate stress range, specimens have demonstrated time dependent behavior comprising of a transition from decreasing to increasing strain during creep in tension. this paper presents experimental results to delineate these findings and explore the effect of prior strain rate on the qualitative and quantitative changes in the output (strain-time) behavior. furthermore, modification of the viscoplasticity theory based on overstress (vbo) model into a double element configuration is introduced. these changes confer upon the model the ability to yield non-monotonic behavior in creep, and supporting simulation results have been included. these changes, therefore, allow the model to simulate strain rate sensitivity, creep, relaxation, and recovery behavior, but more importantly address the issue of non-monotonic changes in creep and relaxation when a loading history involves some degree of unloading.
