Creep Simulation

Hello

 

I want to simulate creep on plastic parts made of PP.

I am looking for PP material data to fill in for the creep calculation. Where can I find this creep data?

In the solidworks help, I read that you have to use a nonlinear simulation and then check the box "take creep into account". Is there any other information to fill in apart from the connections, movements and loads to be applied to the system?

 

Thank you for your cooperation.
