Viscoelastic constitutive models.
Viscoelastic constitutive models cannot be defined by a Helmholtz free energy density function and viscous dissipation function. These constitutive models are therefore defined by a relation for the stress as a function of the deformation gradient and rate. Consequently, the rate tangent stiffness associated with the first Piola-Kirchhoff stress is not symmetric for these models.
