Problem statement

Geometry
Maxwell element at fixed strain 0.01 with E=1000 MPa and eta=10000 MPa-s; hold for 20 s.
Material
Constitutive or analytical definition: sigma(t)=E eps0 exp(-t E/eta).
Boundary conditions
Required solver capability: linear_viscoelasticity. Use the loading/path control stated in the setup and preserve the complete response history.
Measured quantity
tau=10 s; sigma(0)=10 MPa, sigma(10 s)=3.67879441171 MPa, sigma(20 s)=1.35335283237 MPa.
