Abstract:Two definitions of free energy for a linear viscoelastic material, due to Graffi and to Coleman and Owen, are considered, and the compatibility of these definitions with some expressions of the free energy proposed in the literature is examined. For the expressions of Staverman and Schwarzl and of Breuer and Onat, the two definitions are proved to be equivalent, and the set of all relaxation functions for which the two expressions are indeed free energies is determined. Two more expressions, proposed by Volterra and Graffi and by Morro and Vianello, are taken into consideration. For them, only the classes of relaxation functions for which they are free energies according to the first definition, is completely characterized. All results are established under regularity assumptions weaker than those usually made in the literature.
Keywords:linear viscoelasticity  constitutive equations
