About Kelvin–Voigt material
A Kelvin–Voigt material, also called a Voigt material, is the simplest model viscoelastic material showing typical rubbery properties. It is purely elastic on long timescales, but shows additional resistance to fast deformation. The model was developed independently by the British physicist Lord Kelvin in 1865 and by the German physicist Woldemar Voigt in 1890.
