4.6 If the strain history
!
"(s)
0 < s ≤ t, is specified, (3.39a) can be regarded as an
equation for the corresponding stress history. Using the Laplace transform and (4.1) or
(4.2), show that the solution of (3.39a) for the stress history is given by (3.37a).

4.7 Consider a linear viscoelastic solid whose stress relaxation function has the
form
!
G(t) =0.1+0.9e"t 2
( )

.
Find the strain history produced when the material is subjected to the following stress
history,
!
"(t) ="o1#e#t c
( )
$104N /m2
.
SOLUTION
The strain history is calculated from

. It is easiest to carry out the calculation
using the Laplace transform on the above equation and the relation between

G(t) =A+Be"t b
,
where A = G(∞) and B = G(0) - G(∞).
(a) Let
!
"R1

"R 2
be a relaxation time according to Definition 2. Calculate it for this G(t).
SOLUTION
(a) Definition 1 is
