Specifying shear test data

Create a viscoelastic material model as described in Defining time domain viscoelasticity” or Defining frequency domain viscoelasticity.”
From the Test Data menu in the Edit Material dialog box, select Shear Test Data.
A Test Data Editor appears.
In the Long-term normalized shear compliance or modulus field, enter either the long-term, normalized shear compliance, $j_{S} (\infty)$ , for creep test data or the long-term, normalized shear modulus, $g_{R} (\infty)$ , for relaxation test data.
In the Data table, enter the following data:

js or gR

The normalized shear compliance, $j_{S} (t)$ , ( $(j_{S} (t) \geq 1)$ ) for creep test data or the normalized shear relaxation modulus, $g_{R} (t)$ , ( $(0 \leq g_{R} (t) \leq 1)$ ) for relaxation test data.

Time

Time, t. $(t > 0)$
