Abstract

Abstract : We investigate, in the distributional setting, the restrictions on the constitutive equation for a fractional Burgers model of viscoelastic fluid that follow from the weak form of the entropy inequality under isothermal conditions. The results are generalized, from the Burgers model, to an arbitrary class of linear constitutive equations with fractional derivatives. Our results show that the restrictions obtained here on the coefficients of constitutive equations are weaker when compared with the restrictions obtained by Bagley–Torvik method. We show the precise relation between restrictions derived here and those derived by Bagley–Torvik. We deal with the creep test, for the case when Bagley–Torvik conditions are violated, and new conditions obtained in this work are satisfied. The results show a qualitative difference in the form of creep function. This article is part of the theme issue 'Advanced materials modelling via fractional calculus: challenges and perspectives'.
