The amplitudes and (the tangent of) the phase shift angle of the complex stiffness modulus and the complex compliance modulus are plotted against the angular
frequency ω for various relaxation times in Fig. 4.16.
The phase shift angle δ between the harmonically oscillating total stress and strain
and its tangent tan δ are also denoted the loss angle and the loss factor, respectively.
Obviously, the loss factor and thus the loss angle tend to infinity for large angular
frequencies, since in this limit the dissipation of the viscous dashpot is dominating
over the energy storage in the elastic spring.
4.2.2 Specific Kelvin Model: Algorithmic Update
