A Maxwell material is the most simple model viscoelastic material showing properties of a typical liquid. It shows viscous flow on the long timescale, but additional elastic resistance to fast deformations.[1] It is named for James Clerk Maxwell who proposed the model in 1867.[2][3] It is also known as a Maxwell fluid.
