invited to attend was kept to a minimum. Participants not living in the
Stanford area were housed in Donner House of Stern Hall on the Stanford
campus, and were served meals in the dining room of Donner House.
The speakers and observers started to arrive on July 9 and the last ones
left on July 18.

To provide relief from the scientific·activities, a bus trip was organized
for the afternoon of July 13. The 17 persons who took part in the excur
sion were shown some of the scenic beauties of California and some of
the oldest buildings, dating back to the days of Spanish rule, in Monterey
ld in Carmel.
The banquet was held at Adobe Creek Lodge in a pleasant setting
among the steep foothills of the Coast Range. It was attended by 58 per
sons, including many of the wives of the participants. In the after-dinner
talk, Mr. RONALD SMELT, Chief Scientist of the Lockheed Missiles and
Space Division and a lecturer in the Department of Aeronautical En.
gineering of Stanford University, gave an interesting report on efforts to
investigate the environment in which satellites travel. Although most
informative, the talk was given in a manner understandable to the ladies
present; it was illustrated by an interesting sound film .
.T he.sessions took place in accordance with the prearranged program,
except that the paper written by Professor MAZET was delivered by
Monsieur HUGUES DE L'EsTOILE of the Service Technique Aeronautique
of the French Air Force, and that the titles of some of the papers were
changed slightly.
The meeting clo§led in the afternoon of July 15. N. J. HOFF voiced
the thanks of Stanford University for the work done by the participants,
and FOLKE K. G. ÜDQVIST, President of the International Union for
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, expressed the appreciation of the
participants for the hospitality shown them by Stanford.
Speakers and discussors enjoyed the possibility offered to them for
the discussion of problems caused by creep in structures. It is hoped that
readers of these proceedings will derive equal benefits from this volume.

Stress Distribution Analysis for Linear Viscoelastic
Materials!
By
A. H. Corneliussen and E. H. Lee
Brown University, Providence, Rhode Island, USA
Abstract
The formulation of the differential or integro-differential equations
governing the quasi-static stress analysis problem for linear viscoelastic
bodies is considered, with particular reference to the initial conditions
associated with sudden loading. If classical methods of solving the diffe
rential equations, such as the LAPLACE transform or integrating factor,
are used, the need to evaluate the initial conditions after load applica
tion at t = 0+ presents difficulties. These can be avoided by working
with the lower limit t = 0-, before load application, when the body is still
undisturbed, and, in the case of direct integration of the equations, delta
functions and their derivatives must then be incorporated into the ana
lysis. Examples of both methods of approach are contrasted. The stress
distribution in a spinning hollow circular cylinder with annihilating
inner cavity is evaluated as an example which does not fall within the
scope of the LAPLACE transform method of analysis. The procedures are
justified through the application of the corresponding integral operators.
1. Introduction
In analysing the stress distributions in viscoelastic bodies, a system
of partial differential equations or integro-differential equations con
taining derivatives or integrals with respect to both the space variables
and the time must be solved [1,2]2. It is common to consider applied
surface tractions in the form of the HEAV ISIDE step function in the time
variable:
H(t) = 0, t< 0
(1.1)
= 1, t> 0

this being the mathematical idealisation of a rapidly applied load. Many
such problems can be adequately treated on the basis of quasi-static
theory, in which the inertia forces associated with the deformation of the
body can be neglected in comparison with the applied forces. In such an
analysis the effect of the surface tractions, applied suddenly at t,= 0,
is feIt instantaneously throughöut the body. Thus, even though the body
was unstressed for t <0, the dependent variables, the stress and strain
components, may have non-zero initial values after the instantaneous
distribution of the loads. These values will be associated with the time
t = 0+, the situation just before load applieation being assoeiated with
t = 0-. Initial time derivatives of first and higher orders will in general
also be non-zero at t = 0+. Thus the solution of the system of differential
or integro-differential equations must be sought for t >0, with non-zero
initial values at t = 0+. Moreover, these values are not known apriori.
For an isotropie linear viscoelastie body, the stress-strain relations
eontain two pairs of linear operators whieh are analogous to the two
elastie eonstants required to specify linear isotropie elastieity. For eon
venienee, separating the shear and dilatational effeets, the viseoelastie
law s take the form:
(1.2)
(1.3)
where P, Q, P', Q' are linear differential or integral operators; (fij' Cu
the stress and strain tensors respectively, and 8ij andeijtheeorrespond
ing deviators whieh represent shear effeets. The summation eonven
tion for repeated suffixes is utilized, so that (1.3) is the relation between
the average hydrostatic tension, (fiif3, and the dilatation, cw If a rela
tion of type (1.2) or (1.3) between a stress component (f and astrain
component c corresponds to a viscoelastic model with a finite number of
springs and dashpots, it can be represented by differential operators of
finite order, for example:
(1.4)
General linear viseoelastieity ean be represented in terms of the ereep
eomplianee J (t), by the integral relation:
e
Jt
c(t)= J(t-r:)e:dr: (1.5)
- co
and if the material is undisturbed for t< 0, this ean be written in the
form:
e
Jt
e(t)= J(t-r:)~adr:. (1.6)
