Viscoelasticity is the property of materials that exhibit both viscous and elastic characteristics when undergoing deformation. Viscous materials, like honey, resist shear flow and strain linearly with time when a stress is applied. Elastic materials strain when stretched and quickly return to their original state once the stress is removed. Visco...

(from the article `deformation and flow`) Viscoelastic solids have molecules in which the load-deformation relationship is time-dependent.
