Wave equation for generalized Zener model containing complex order fractional derivatives

We study waves in a viscoelastic rod whose constitutive equation is of generalized Zener type that contains fractional derivatives of complex order. The restrictions following from the Second Law of Thermodynamics are derived. The initial-boundary value problem for such materials is formulated and solution is presented in the form of convolution. Two specific examples are analyzed.

Space-time fractional Zener wave equation

Space-time fractional Zener wave equation, describing viscoelastic materials obeying the time-fractional Zener model and the space-fractional strain measure, is derived and analyzed. This model includes waves with finite speed, as well as non-propagating disturbances. The existence and the uniqueness of the solution to the generalized Cauchy problem are proved. Special cases are investigated and numerical examples are presented.
