Transient Response of Continuous Viscoelastic Structural Members.

Abstract

A comprehensive theory for the dynamic response of linear continuous viscoelastic structural members is formulated with a modal analysis. The constitutive relation is in the form of a hereditary integral. A general set of formulas is derived that may be used for both non-self-adjoint and self-adjoint systems of governing equations of motion. Applications include a Voigt-Kelvin beam and a viscoelastic circular plate. (Author)
