Mechanical Relaxation of Linear Viscoelastic Materials Described by the Modified Anelastic Element

The stress relaxation and creep in amorphous materials, the dielectric relaxation in conducting polymers, the spin relaxation in spin‐glasses, are examples of processes described by the mathematical formalism of the theory of linear viscoelasticity. This description, given by a spectrum or distribut...
