It seems that POLYMAT does not want to perform the fit without G&#8217; and G&#8221; data and issues a warning. Is there a way to get around this?  This is a somewhat unusual situation, but we understand that acquiring oscillatory data is not always feasible for all materials. The following workaround is suggested: \u00e2\u20ac\u00a2Create dummy files for G&#8217; and G&#8221; properties and read them into POLYMAT. \u00e2\u20ac\u00a2Set the weight of these curves to be very small like 1.0e-12 in Numerical options for fitting under Automatic fitting so that POLYMAT effectively does not use them in curve fitting. \u00e2\u20ac\u00a2Fix the relaxation time to an appropriate value. Since we are using dummy G&#8217; and G&#8221;, it appears reasonable that the value of the relaxation time will have to be supplied to the program. \u00e2\u20ac\u00a2Do the curve fitting and get other parameters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-164688","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry","topic-tag-4424","topic-tag-fluid-dynamics","topic-tag-general","topic-tag-polyflow"],"aioseo_notices":[],"acf":[],"custom_fields":[{"0":{"_wp_page_template":["default"],"_bbp_last_active_time":["3-15-2023  20:20:12"],"_bbp_forum_id":["27796"],"_bbp_author_ip":["23.56.168.180"],"_btv_view_count":["701"],"siebel_km_number":["1432"],"product_version":["16"],"km_published_date":["2006-11-10T00:00:00.000Z"],"family":["Fluid Dynamics"],"application_name":["POLYFLOW"]},"test":"articlesansys-com"}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/164688","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topics\/164688\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/innovationspace.ansys.com\/knowledge\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=164688"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
