This paper presents results from uniaxial cylinder upsetting tests of sodium silicate glass at different constant deformation rates each combined with relaxation experiments in the temperature range 480-580 deg C. Due to the complete stress relaxation to final load zero (vanished carrying capacity) also below glass transition temperature Tg, it follows Maxwell behaviour in principle. But the rheological analyses of loading and unloading experiments together show that only nonlinear Maxwell model approaches can adequately describe the deformation behaviour of the glass in the surroundings of Tg.
