Abstract

We consider fractional generalizations of the ordinary differential equation that governs the creep phenomenon. Precisely, two Caputo fractional Voigt models are considered: a rheological linear model and a nonlinear one. In the linear case, an explicit Volterra representation of the solution is found, involving the generalized Mittag-Leffler function in the kernel. For the nonlinear fractional Voigt model, an existence result is obtained through a fixed point theorem. A nonlinear example, illustrating the obtained existence result, is given.

This work is part of first author’s Ph.D., which is carried out at Houari Boumediene University, Algeria.
