Vibration Analysis of Friction Dampered Blade.
TRANSACTIONS OF THE JAPAN SOCIETY OF MECHANICAL ENGINEERS Series C, 1993 Recently, in order to improve power plant thermal efficiency, the turbine blade, which is the most important element of the power plant, has been used under severe conditions of high loading. Therefore, for the purpose of increasing plant reliability, the blade with friction dampers has been used.

Earthquake response of adjacent structures with viscoelastic and friction dampers [PDF]
Theoretical and Applied Mechanics, 2015 We study the seismic response of two adjacent structures connected with a dry friction damper. Each of them consists of a viscoelastic rod and a rigid block, which can slide without friction along the moving base.
