Before revision: Recent results on a thermodinamically conceived numerical scheme applied on wave propagation in viscoelastic/rheological solids are generalized here, both in the sense that the scheme is extended to four spacetime dimensions and in the aspect of the virtues of a thermodynamical approach.
After revision: The recent results attained from a thermodynamically conceived numerical scheme applied on wave propagation in viscoelastic/rheological solids are generalized here, both in the sense that the scheme is extended to four spacetime dimensions and in the aspect of the virtues of a thermodynamical approach.
