A mathematical model of annealing is proposed that takes account of both stress and structural relaxation. The model fits the experimentally observed evolution of stresses during linear cooling. It also suggests that with the activation energies of stress and structural relaxation about the same, the actual rate at any given temperature of structural relaxation is about four times slower than that of stress relaxation.
