Problem 2: The mechanical behavior of specific biological materials can be described by a Voigt body (shown below). A sinusoidal stress profile σ = σ0e^jωt is applied to the materials, which produces a sinusoidal strain response ε = ε0e^j(ωt-δ).
(a) Show that the expression for the complex modulus E* for these materials is E* = E + jσ0/ω. Be sure to show all your work.
(b) Obtain an expression for the resulting strain as a function of time.
