Abstract

We investigate some possible nonlinear generalizations of the Kelvin—Voigt viscoelastic models. We use the usual idealization of creep and recovery experiments to discuss the mechanical significance of some constitutive requirements and we show that in the case of a shear-rate dependent viscosity localization of the solution is possible under a simple constitutive characterization.
