viscoelasticitymeaning
Viscoelasticity is a property of materials that exhibit both viscous and elastic characteristics when undergoing deformation. This means that their response to applied stress is time-dependent, a behavior not seen in purely elastic or purely viscous materials.
An elastic material, when deformed, stores energy and returns to its original shape once the stress is
The degree to which a viscoelastic material behaves elastically or viscously depends on factors such as temperature,
Common examples of viscoelastic materials include polymers, biological tissues, and certain gels. Understanding viscoelasticity is crucial
