Abstract: In this paper, we study the existence of weak solutions for the Cauchy problem and the existence of shock profiles for the system in viscoelasticity, \[ \begin {cases} \displaystyle v_t - u_x = 0, \displaystyle u_t - \sigma ^*(v)_x = \mu u_{xx},\quad \mu > 0, \end {cases} \quad x\in \textbf {R}, t \geq 0, \] with $\sigma ^*(v) = \sigma (v) + H(v)$, where $\sigma$ is a smooth stress function and $H$ is the usual Heaviside function. These kinds of models are motivated by some problems in mechanics of solids. Finally we solve, in related situations, the Riemann problem for the corresponding hyperbolic system.
