Abstract
Unsteady translation of a sphere in a viscoelastic fluid is studied analytically. General, fully invertible relationships between an imposed time-dependent velocity and the resultant force are described in terms of a Volterra series expansion. These results are used to analyze particle motion in fluids described by the Johnson-Segalman and Giesekus models and to define a general framework for analyzing weakly nonlinear microrheology measurements.
