If storage and loss modulus relate to thickness and thinness, why does modulus crossover show storage modulus increasing and vice versa when a material is being shear-thinned?
Post Body

The title pretty much covers it. When a material in melt phase is being shear thinned with oscillatory motion in a rotational rheometer, you see some materials shear thin as the angular frequency increases.

However, when you see modulus crossover happen on the same material, itโ€™s actually the storage modulus rising above the loss modulus, which to me seems like that would mean itโ€™s getting thicker.
