On a initial value problem arising in mechanics
  We study initial value problem for a system consisting of an integer order and distributed-order fractional differential equation describing forced oscillations of a body attached to a free end of a light viscoelastic rod. Explicit form of a solution for a class of linear viscoelastic solids is given in terms of a convolution integral. Restrictions on storage and loss moduli following from the Second Law of Thermodynamics play the crucial role in establishing the form of the solution. Some previous results are shown to be special cases of the present analysis.
