Algebraic and numerical exploration of free energies for materials with memory

We study the forms of a range of free energy functionals for materials with memory for two types of strain history, namely sinusoidal and exponential behaviours. The work deals with discrete spectrum materials, which are those with relaxation functions given by sums of decaying exponentials. V...
