Abstract
Formulations of the boundary element method (BEM) currently include conventional viscoelastic constitutive equations in the frequency domain. The aim of the present paper is to implement viscoelastic behaviour in a time domain approach as well. The elastic Stokes fundamental solution is converted to a viscoelastic one by adopting a correspondence principle. A novel viscoelastic fundamental solution is obtained analytically by inverse Laplace transformation. A frequency domain BE approach is generalized by taking viscoelastic constitutive equations with fractional order time derivatives into account. It is shown that the boundary matrix ϵ ij for non smooth boundaries in a dynamic formulation equals the elastostatic matrix. The transfer behaviour of a mounting system has been calculated by adopting the developed BE formulation to a viscoelastic resilient support mount.
