Strain rebound and inhomogeneity in glass-to-metal seals: Radial vs axial strain evolution by Keqian Gong, Zheng Liu, Zifeng Song, Chao Zhou, Zhangjing Shi, Siyue Nie, Weisong Zhou, He Yan, Zhichun Fan, Yong Zhang

“…Notably, axial strain froze earlier than radial strain (590 °C vs 575 °C): a counterintuitive finding attributed to free volume (FV) dynamics within the glass. Both directions exhibited pronounced strain rebound at lower temperatures, driven by the accumulation of smaller rebound events, effectively explained by FV theory. …”
