The corotational Maxwell fluid replaces the ordinary derivative of the linear Maxwell fluid by the Jaumann derivative:
Here uses , or equivalently the commutator is with the standard spin tensor. The stress has relaxation time and small-rate viscosity . The commutator makes the constitutive equation nonlinear while maintaining an objective time derivative.
