contents A generalized hydrodynamic theory that systematically incorporates elasticity and viscoelasticity had been derived about a quarter of a century ago. It is based on a strictly Euler point of view, as is natural for hydrodynamics. We used and adapted this theory particularly in a linear framework. There, it is straightforward to focus on what are the flow and displacement fields in linearized hydrodynamics and elasticity, which provides some advantages. Since this theoretical approach appears not to be as commonly widespread as it deserves to be, we here overview and review the formalism. Specific further focus is on pointing out relations to the commonly known Kelvin-Voigt model and Maxwell model. They are naturally contained within this description. The two limits of perfect long-term elasticity on one hand and long-term flow on the other hand can be represented by adjusting only one parameter.
