Abstract

The term rate-independent is usually referred to time-dependent processes which are invariant under time rescaling. In other words, the output of the process is independent of the rate at which the input assumes its values. This feature is common to many physical and engineering systems which do not possess, or possess a very small, internal relaxation time and hence react immediately to the change of external conditions.
