TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a constitutive theory within a thermodynamic setting to describe the creep of single crystal superalloys that gainfully exploits the fact that the configuration that the body would attain on the removal of the external stimuli, referred to as the "natural configuration", evolves, with the response of the body being elastic from these evolving natural configurations.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hollow sphere composed of such a material, also assumed to be incom-pressible and isotropic, which undergoes axisymmetric deformation under radial traction is considered.

TL;DR: There is a need to develop a mathematical model for the flow of blood that takes into account platelet activation, no such model being available at the moment.

TL;DR: In this article, a new class of quasi-linear viscoelastic models is proposed, where the linearized strain is expressed in terms of a nonlinear measure of the stress.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors considered a hollow circular cylinder composed of such a material, also assumed to be incompressible and isotropic, and found that microstructural scission can lead to higher levels of shear deformation near the inner surface of the cylinder than in the case of purely elastic response.
