Abstract
A large number of rheological models can be covered by the existence and un iqueness theory for maximal monotone operators. Numerical simulations displ ay hysteresis cycles when the forcing is periodic. A given shape of hystere sis cycle in an appropriate class of polygonal cycles can always be realize d by adjusting the physical parameters of the rheological model.
