Relative Modulus in Prony Series

How does ANSYS convert the relative moduli it inputs (or stores itself after curve fitting) to the actual moduli? I can't figure out how is it possible to get the shear and bulk moduli from the input data.

Is it done through the elastic modulus that is input through the MP command, by using a relation like G=E/(2(1+pr))...?

If yes, then considering that I have only tensile relaxation curves for shear and bulk moduli, what value of E should I input?

any other suggestions?
