In order to use the time domain viscoelastic material model in ABAQUS, one needs to have the following Prony series parameters:
1. normalised shaer relaxation modulus (gi)
2. normalised bulk relaxation modulus (ki)
3. relaxation time (tau i)
Assuming there is only the experimental data of an uniaxial compression test available. Does anyone know how to obtain the above parameters from these experimental data?
Thanks
