Type of viscoelastic material From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A Burgers material is a viscoelastic material having the properties both of elasticity and viscosity. It is named after the Dutch physicist Johannes Martinus Burgers.
Given that one Maxwell material has an elasticity and viscosity , and the other Maxwell material has an elasticity and viscosity , the Burgers model has the constitutive equation
where is the stress and is the strain.
Given that the Kelvin material has an elasticity and viscosity , the spring has an elasticity and the dashpot has a viscosity , the Burgers model has the constitutive equation
where is the stress and is the strain.[1]
This model incorporates viscous flow into the standard linear solid model, giving a linearly increasing asymptote for strain under fixed loading conditions.
