Attenuation and shock waves in linear hereditary viscoelastic media.   Strick-Mainardi, Jeffreys-Lomnitz-Strick and Andrade creep compliances
  Dispersion, attenuation and wavefronts in a class of linear viscoelastic media proposed by Strick and Mainardi in 1982 and a related class of models due to Lomnitz, Jeffreys and Strick are studied by a new method due to the Author. Unlike the previously studied explicit models of relaxation modulus or creep compliance, these two classes support propagation of discontinuities. Due to an extension made by Strick either of these two classes of models comprise both viscoelastic solids and fluids.
