Abstract :

A b s t r a c t. A numerical method for determining the creep response of a generalized Maxwell model was developed. It was found that this response can be determined numerically. The procedure for determining the creep response also gives the stress response of each element in the generalized model. These stresses in the elements can be used to explain creep failure in biological materials.
