Application Of More Complex Rheological Models In Continuum Mechanics

Abstract

The paper deals with mathematical modeling of the structural materials representing their rheological properties. The materials are modeled by more complex models (enhancement of Voigt and Maxwell models). The constitutive equations are derived; the relationships within the creep and relaxation process are developed. The rheological behavior of the materials is introduced.
