The Kelvin–Voigt model, also called the Voigt model, is represented by a purely viscous damper and purely elastic spring connected in parallel as shown in the picture. If, instead, we connect these two elements in series we get a model of a Maxwell material. Since the two components of the model are arranged in parallel, the strains in each ...
These models, which include the Maxwell model, the Kelvin–Voigt model, the standard linear solid model, and the Burgers model, are used to predict a material's response under different loading conditions. Viscoelastic behavior has elastic and viscous components modeled as linear combinations of springs and dashpots, respectively. Each model ...
The standard linear solid model combines aspects of the Maxwell and Kelvin–Voigt models to accurately describe the overall behavior of a system under a given set of loading conditions. The behavior of a material applied to an instantaneous stress is shown as having an instantaneous component of the response.
On the other hand, the Voigt model is good at predicting creep but rather poor at predicting stress relaxation (see viscoelasticity). The extracellular matrix and most tissues are stress relaxing, and the kinetics of stress relaxation have been recognized as an important mechanical cue that affects the migration, proliferation , and ...

Diagram of a Maxwell material. The Maxwell model is represented by a purely viscous damper and a purely elastic spring connected in series, [4] as shown in the diagram. If, instead, we connect these two elements in parallel, [4] we get the generalized model of a solid Kelvin–Voigt material.
Schematic diagram of Burgers material, Kelvin representation Given that the Kelvin material has an elasticity E 1 {\displaystyle E_{1}} and viscosity η 1 {\displaystyle \eta _{1}} , the spring has an elasticity E 2 {\displaystyle E_{2}} and the dashpot has a viscosity η 2 {\displaystyle \eta _{2}} , the Burgers model has the constitutive equation
Maxwell and Kelvin–Voigt models of viscoelasticity use springs and dashpots in series and parallel circuits respectively. Models containing dashpots add a viscous, time-dependent element to the behavior of solids, allowing complex behaviors like creep and stress relaxation to be modeled.
