Abstract
A computer algorithm is described which allows the determination of a discrete distribution of relaxation times from simulated or smoothed storage or loss modulus data, or of retardation times from simulated or smoothed storage or loss compliance data. The distributions faithfully reproduce the input data and are suitable for data storage as well as for generating any other response curves.
