Comparative Analysis of Viscoelastic Models Involving Fractional Derivatives of Different Orders
Mathematics Subject Classification: 74D05, 26A33In this paper, a comparative analysis of the models involving fractional derivatives of di®erent orders is given. Such models of viscoelastic materials are widely used in various problems of mechanics and rheology. Rabotnov's hereditarily elastic rheological model is considered in detail. It is shown that this model is equivalent to the rheological model involving fractional derivatives in the stress and strain with the orders proportional to a certain positive...
