In the thermal Frenkel-Kontorova chain, shear thinning and viscosity are set by energy drops at mechanical instabilities, not by thermally activated barrier crossing, so Eyring fits can be coincidental.
(2), we also consider two alternative approaches for dissipating energy, which deviate from the standard implementation of instantaneous damping relative to the substrate

Finite-temperature properties of the Frenkel-Kontorova model: Relation to tribological systems and fluid rheology
In the thermal Frenkel-Kontorova chain, shear thinning and viscosity are set by energy drops at mechanical instabilities, not by thermally activated barrier crossing, so Eyring fits can be coincidental.
