Loss angle is dimensionless and interpreted in degrees.
This should be “Loss tangent”, not “Loss angle”
Loss tangent has angular units, not dimensionless.
Also, there needs to be a different loss tangent for Young’s modulus and for the Tension, so the complex value for E (Young’s modulus) in the computations would be:
E = Eo * exp(j*loss_tangent_E)
and for the Tension,
T = To * exp(j*loss_tangent_T)
where I’ve used “o” to denote the magnitude (i.e. Eo=|E|), _E to refer to the Young’s modulus, and _T to refer to the Tension.
I guess we can refer to the two different loss tangents as:
- “Young’s modulus loss tangent” and
- “Tension loss tangent”
