On the local regularity of solutions in linear viscoelasticity of several space dimensions. (English) Zbl 0811.35148

Summary: We discuss the local regularity of solutions of a nonlocal system of equations which describe the motion of a viscoelastic medium in several space dimensions. Our main tool is the microlocal analysis combined with MacCamy’s trick and the argument of the classical energy method.
