We derive new analytical solutions for the nonaffine Johnson-Segalman/Gordon-Schowalter (JS/GS) constitutive equation with a general relaxation kernel in medium-amplitude oscillatory shear (MAOS) deformation. The results show time-strain separable (TSS) nonlinearity, therefore providing new physically meaningful interpretation to the heuristic TSS nonlinear parameter in MAOS [Martinetti and Ewoldt, Phys. Fluids31, 021213 (2019)]. The upper-convected, lower-convected, and corotational Maxwell models are all subsets of the results presented here. The model assumes that the microscale elements causing stress in the material slip compared to the continuum deformation. We introduce a visualization of the nonaffine deformation field that acts on stress-generating elements to reinforce the physical interpretation of the JS/GS class of models. Finally, a case study is presented where previously published results, from fitting TSS models to MAOS data, can be reinterpreted based on the concept of nonaffine motion of the JS/GS framework.
