Formulation of Rayleigh damping and its extensions

Computers & Structures, 1995
The objective of this paper is to present a study on the formulation of Rayleigh damping for a damped linear mechanical system. By means of examining the existing theory on Rayleigh damping, extensions of Rayleigh damping are proposed in terms of a double series. The extended forms provide more choices in formulating a damping matrix.

Suboptimal Rayleigh damping coefficients in seismic analysis of viscously-damped structures

Earthquake Engineering and Engineering Vibration, 2014
An optimization method for the consistent evaluation of two Rayleigh damping coefficients is proposed. By minimizing an objective function such as an error term of the peak displacement of a structure, the two coefficients can be determined with response spectral analysis. The optimization method degenerates into the conventional method used in current

Magnetoelastic coupling and Rayleigh damping

COMPEL - The international journal for computation and mathematics in electrical and electronic engineering, 2004
This paper presents a magnetoelastic dynamic FE model. As first approach, the effect of magnetostriction and strong coupling is not considered. The effect of Rayleigh damping factors on the vibrational behaviour of the stator core of a synchronous generator is studied using the presented model.

Rayleigh damping parameters estimation using hammer impact tests

Mechanical Systems and Signal Processing, 2020
Abstract Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) systems for aerospace applications are becoming more prevalent and its potential cost-benefit relation is rapidly improving as more structures that were traditionally made with metallic materials are gradually being replaced by composites.

Rayleigh Damping in Abaqus/Explicit Dynamic Analysis

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2014
In the nonlinear time-history analysis for high-rise building, different damping models may lead to results with great difference. Limited by the stable time increment, the stiffness proportional damping is usually neglected in Abaqus/Explicit, and only a simplified mass proportional damping is used, which can be derived from the fundamental frequency ...

Rayleigh Damping Effects on Global Analysis of Umbilicals

Volume 4: Pipeline and Riser Technology, 2011
Despite global analysis of umbilicals is a well-known area in the offshore systems design, some topics are still opened for discussions. One of these topics refers to the structural damping. Obviously, the viscous damping caused by hydrodynamic drag forces is the major source of damping to the whole system.

Analysis of proportional damping or Rayleigh damping on damped and undamped systems

2017 Fifth International Conference on Aerospace Science & Engineering (ICASE), 2017
Damping mechanisms have been active areas of research for a long time in history, despite this its understanding is still rudimentary as compared to the other traits of modeling. The actual problem is that even now it is not clear, which state variables are relevant for the computation of damping forces, which makes it very difficult to model in Finite

Topological hysteresis as a model for Rayleigh damping

Materials Science and Engineering: A, 2006
Abstract To account for the large magnetomechanical damping of demagnetized specimens, we propose as a model Landau's arrangement of magnetic domains with no overall magnetic moment. To analyze the model, we use the nature of magnetostriction to transform the data from internal friction, Q −1 , and strain amplitude, ɛ , into energy loss and volume

Rayleigh Damped Magnetic Resonance Elastograpy

2008
A three-dimensional, incompressible, Rayleigh damped magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) material property reconstruction algorithm capable of reconstructing the spatial distribution of both the real and imaginary parts of the shear modulus, density and bulk modulus from full-field MR-detected harmonic motion data was developed.

Problems with Rayleigh Damping in Base-Isolated Buildings

Journal of Structural Engineering, 2008
In dynamic analysis, the energy dissipation in a base-isolated building is typically accounted for by allocating damping properties independently to the superstructure and to the isolation system. Rayleigh damping applied to the superstructure component alone is often used to represent the superstructure energy dissipation.
