Viscoelasticity is a property of materials that exhibit both viscous and elastic characteristics when undergoing deformation. This means that these materials can both flow like a fluid (viscous behavior) and deform elastically (return to their original shape) when stress is applied. \#\#\# Key Characteristics: 1. **Viscous Behavior**: When a force is applied to a viscous material, it deforms and flows continuously over time.
