Burgers material

A Burgers material is a viscoelastic material which consists of a Maxwell material and a Kelvin material in series. It is named after the Dutch physicist Johannes Martinus Burgers.

Given four rheological constants $a_{1}$ , $a_{2}$ , $a_{3}$ , and $a_4$ , the Burgers model has the constitutive equation

\sigma +a_{1}{\dot {\sigma }}+a_{2}{\ddot {\sigma }}=a_{3}\gamma +a_{4}{\dot {\gamma }}

where $\sigma$ is the stress and $\gamma$ is the rate of deformation.^[1]
