We find that viscoelastic relaxation plays a significant role in modifying the correlation, particularly the cross correlation. We also find that both the real and imaginary parts of the response function are significantly different from the viscous medium case. In particular there is a phase shift between the vanishing imaginary part and the maximal real part of the response function in a viscoelastic medium. In addition imaginary part of the cross correlation response function exhibits a net energy loss （gain） behavior when the elasticity parameter of the medium is larger （smaller） than the critical value for Kelvin （Maxwell） viscoelastic fluid. Some implication of our results and their connection with previous works are discussed.展开更多

We construct the model based on the classical GL-model for homogeneous material. This system is coupled dynamic problem and the displacement field and heat field must be solved at the same time. By using Fadeo- Galerkin method, we proved that the problem we proposed exist unique weak solution under some regular assumption.展开更多
