Abstract

A nonlinear theory is developed for a heat-conducting viscoelastic composite which is modelled as a mixture consisting of a microstretch Kelvin–Voigt material and a microstretch elastic solid. The strain measures, the basic laws and the constitutive equations are established and presented in Lagrangian description. The initial boundary value problem associated to such model is also formulated. Then the linearized theory is considered and the constitutive equations are given for both anisotropic and isotropic bodies. Finally, a uniqueness result is established within the framework of the linear theory.
