Real materials exhibit a variety of behaviors:

from ic.ucsc.edu/~casey/eart150/Lectures/Rheology/13rheology.htm Docsity.com

The behavior of real materials is better described by combining simple models in series or parallel. For example:

A visco-elastic (or Maxwell) solid:

An elasto-plastic (Prandtl) material:

Elasticity:

The one-dimensional stress-strain relationship may be written as:

n

σ = C ε

where C is an elastic constant.

o The response is instantaneous. o Here the strain is the infinitesimal strain.

Note that:

The material is said to be linear elastic if n=1.

Hooke’s law:

σ = C ε

In three dimensions, Hooke’s law is written as:

σ (^) ij = Cijkl ε kl

where Cijkl is a matrix whose entries are the stiffness coefficients.
