Description
In the spirit of preceeding results for the quasistatic case, we study the limiting process from nonlinear to linearized viscoelastodynamics for a general frame-indifferent model of Kelvin-Voigt rheology. We prove existence of weak solutions to both cases using a recently developed variational time-delayed approach. We then prove that solutions to the nonlinear model indeed converge to the unique solution of the linearized model and highlight how the different limits of linearization and the approximation process interact.
