Optional parameters

SHRINF

To specify creep test data, set this parameter equal to the value of the long-term, normalized shear compliance $j_{S} (\infty)$ .

To specify relaxation test data, set this parameter equal to the value of the long-term, normalized shear modulus $g_{R} (\infty)$ .

The shear compliance and shear modulus are related by $j_{S} (\infty) = 1 / g_{R} (\infty)$ . The fitting procedure will use the specified value in the constraint $1 - \sum_{i = 1}^{N} {\bar{g}}_{i}^{P} = g_{R} (\infty)$ .

VOLINF

To specify creep test data, set this parameter equal to the value of the long-term, normalized volumetric compliance $j_{K} (\infty)$ .

To specify relaxation test data, set this parameter equal to the value of the long-term normalized volumetric modulus $k_{R} (\infty)$ . The volumetric compliance and volumetric modulus are related by $j_{K} (\infty) = 1 / k_{R} (\infty)$ . The fitting procedure will use this value in the constraint $1 - \sum_{i = 1}^{N} {\bar{k}}_{i}^{P} = k_{R} (\infty)$ .

Data lines to specify creep test data

First line

Normalized shear compliance $j_{S} (t), (j_{S} (t) \geq 1)$ .
Normalized volumetric (bulk) compliance $j_{K} (t), (j_{K} (t) \geq 1)$ .
Time $t, (t > 0)$ .

Repeat the above data line as often as necessary to give the compliance-time data.

Data lines to specify relaxation test data

First line

Normalized shear modulus $g_{R} (t), (0 \leq g_{R} (t) \leq 1)$ .
Normalized volumetric (bulk) modulus $k_{R} (t), (0 \leq k_{R} (t) \leq 1)$ .
Time $t, (t > 0)$ .

Repeat the above data line as often as necessary to give the modulus-time data.
