It is shown that in the general theory of incompressible simple fluids with fading memory there are, for several types of nonsteady shearing motions, simple universal asymptotic relations between the shear stress S12 and the first normal stress difference N1 = S22 - S11. The kinematical situations considered include initiation of steady shearing, rest after steady shearing, and sinusoidal oscillation. In, for example, relaxation following cessation of a steady shearing flow with rate of shear κ, there holds, to within an error O(κ4): \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ dN_1 (t)/dt = - 2_\kappa S_{12} (t). $\end{document} This and the other derived universal relations between N1 and S12 are either consequences of, or are closely related to a general asymptotic formula [B. D. Coleman and W. Noll, Revs. Mod. Phys., 33, 239 (1961), eq. (6.15)] expressing N1 as an integral of the product of the shear relaxation modulus and the square of the history of the relative shear strain.
