Dynamic viscoelasticity of bovine vitreous body.
The dynamic mechanical property of the vitreous body was studied as functions of frequency and temperature. The data at different temperatures were found to be superposable onto a single set of master relaxation curves. It was found that the shape of the composite master relaxation curves of the vitreous body resembles that of the network polymer system except for the very small absolute value of the shear modulus.
