Modelling stress relaxation for viscoelastic material with many time steps

SubscriberDear all,
I'm trying to model the stress relaxation behaviour of a material after deforming it. I have curve fitted the Prony series for this model to make my material behave viscoelastically and I have some generic linear elastic properties. In order to deform the model, I need many time steps in order to have a converging solution, but these timesteps already include some stress relaxation behaviour due to the viscoelastic material model. I would like to create a seemingly instantaneous linear elastic deformation, then activate the viscoelastic properties and see what happens. I have tried using the MPCHG command, but this of course does not work for nonlinear material models. Is there anyone who can give me a lead on this?
With kind regards,
Thies
