34. The model predicts that the application at t′=0 of a larger step strain (out of the linear regime) leads to an effective aging exponent smaller than μ. We have not performed such experiments out of the linear regime. This prediction is, however, compatible with observations reported in Ref. [10] (cf. note [25]).
