ABSTRACT The Cosserat Spectrum theory is applied in the theory of linear viscoelasticity[ The solution for the Laplace transform of the displacement of the viscoelastic problem is expressed in a series of the Cosserat eigenfunctions\ which are dependent only on position\ and the coe.cients are expressed as convolutions of the time dependent body force or surface loading provided that the inverse Laplace transforms of the viscoelastic moduli are known[ This renders the Cosserat Spectrum theory advantageous for the solution of viscoelastic problems[ Several examples are shown[ Þ 0887 Elsevier Science Ltd[ All rights reserved[ Keywords ] A[ creep\ B[ viscoelastic material\ C[ Cosserat Spectrum[
0[ INTRODUCTION The homogeneous Navier equations Duł ¦v99 = uł 9\ ðv "l¦m#:m "0:"0−1n#\l and m being the Lame|s constants\ n the Poisson|s ratioŁ\ with homogeneous boundary conditions of displacement or traction admit nontrivial solutions when v takes values in a set of points lying outside the physical range of Poisson|s ratio called the Cosserat Spectrum[ The Cosserat Spectrum theory was introduced by Cosserat and Cosserat "0787# and then fully developed by Mikhlin "0862#\ who proved the completeness and orthogonality of the Cosserat eigenfunctions and represented the displacement _eld uł as summation of the Cosserat eigenfunctions for the boundary value problems of displacement or traction[ Pobedria "0869# applied the Cosserat Spectrum theory to 1!D viscoelastic problems[ In a recent paper\ Markensco} and Paukshto "0887# applied it to problems in elasticity and thermoelasticity[ They also developed a variational principle in thermoelasticity within the frame of the Cosserat Spectrum theory[ In the present article we develop a theory of linear viscoelasticity based on the Cosserat Spectrum theory[ We show that in the Laplace transformed space the Navier equations hold and the Cosserat Spectrum theory can be applied[ The solution for $ To whom correspondence should be addressed[ E!mail ] xmarkensÝames[ucsd[edu 0858

the Laplace transform of the displacement function of viscoelastic problems is expre! ssed in series of the Cosserat eigenfunctions\ which are functions of geometry only "and not the transform variable s#\ and the coe.cients are functions of s that can be easily inverted for rational functions\ which is the case in the commonly used vis! coelastic models "Christensen\ 0860#[ Thus\ once the inverse Laplace transforms of these functions that depend on the viscoelastic moduli are known\ the solution may readily be expressed as convolutions of the time dependent body force or surface loading[ In this respect\ this method of solution has an advantage over the standard methods as in Lee "0844#\ Radok "0846#\ and Lee et al[ "0848#[

2[ INVERSION OF THE LAPLACE TRANSFORMS An advantage of expressing the solutions of the viscoelastic problem in terms of the Cosserat eigenfunctions is that the inversion of the Laplace transform may be obtained by convolution\ provided that inverse Laplace transforms of the terms involving the viscoelastic moduli can be easily obtained[ Let us consider the representation eqn "00# for the boundary value problem of displacement with homogeneous boundary conditions and denote 0 ¼# m¼ "0¦v

Similarly\ the inversion of the representation eqn "02# for the boundary value problem of displacement with inhomogeneous boundary conditions\ and eqn "04# for the boundary value problem of traction may be obtained[ Thus for any time dependent body force loading or boundary loading\ the solution of viscoelastic problems may be written immediately in the form of eqn "06# if the Cosserat eigenfunctions are known for the geometry of the problem[ The functions G"−0# "t#\ G"# "t# and G"v ½ n\ t# for the commonly used viscoelastic models are presented in the Appendix[
