Classical Extremes: Elastic Solid
1678: Robert Hooks develops his
“True Theory of Elasticity”
 “The power of any spring is in the same
proportion with the tension thereof.”
 Hooke’s Law: t
=Gg
or
where G is the RIGIDITY MODULUS
.
G is constant
(Stress = G x Strain)
Classical Extremes: Viscosity
 1687: Isaac Newton addresses liquids and steady simple
shearing flow in his “Principia”
 “The resistance which arises from the lack of
slipperiness of the parts of the liquid, other things being
equal, is proportional to the velocity with which the parts
of the liquid are separated from one another.”
Newton’s Law: t = hg
h is constant
wherehis the Coefficient of Viscosity

For the classical extremes cases, what only matters are
the values of stress, strain and strain rate.
The response is independent of the loading.

Viscoelasticity Defined
Range of Material Behavior
Solid Like ---------- Liquid Like
Ideal Solid ----- Most Materials ----- Ideal Fluid
Purely Elastic ----- Viscoelastic ----- Purely Viscous
Viscoelasticity: Having both viscous
and elastic properties
Realistic polymer material
- Materials are in between Elastic solid and
Newtonian liquid called “viscoelastic”
- Some energy stored, some dissipated.
- Some time independent, some time dependent.
A typical viscoelastic effect is tackiness (with long strings)
which is not occuring with purely viscous liquid (example: water),
or purely elastic solid (example: stone)
