Thermo-viscoelastic Interaction in a Three-dimensional Problem Subjected to Fractional Heat Conduction
Abstract In capturing visco-elastic behavior, experimental tests play a fundamental role, since they allow in building up theoretical constitutive laws very useful for simulating their own behavior. In the present contribution, estimation is made to ...
