VD-PQ; A Velocity-Dependent Viscous Damping Model for Wave-Structure Interaction Analysis
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 For the analysis and design of coastal and offshore structures, viscous loads represent one of the most influential parameters that dominate their response. Very commonly, the potential flow theory is used for identifying the excitation wave loads, while

Monitoring of Liquid Viscosity for Viscous Dampers through a Wireless Impedance Measurement System
Applied Sciences, 2021 Viscous dampers are a type of seismic damping equipment widely used in high-rise buildings and bridges. However, the viscosity of the damping fluid inside the viscous damper will change over time during its use, which significantly reduces the seismic ...

Viscous damping of rotation in Wendelstein 7-AS [PDF]
Plasma Physics and Controlled Fusion, 2000 One of the main results of the Wendelstein 7-AS stellarator (major radius 2 m, average plasma radius 0.18 m, magnetic field 2.5 T, low shear) is the achievement of the H-mode confinement in ECR- and NBI-heated plasmas. There is a strong dependence on the external rotational transform; the H-mode confinement can be found only in a narrow window close to

A General Rule for the Influence of Physical Damping on the Numerical Stability of Time Integration Analysis [PDF]
Journal of Applied and Computational Mechanics, 2018 The influence of physical damping on the numerical stability of time integration analysis is an open question since decades ago. In this paper, it is shown that, under specific very general conditions, physical damping can be disregarded when studying ...

Influence of Internal Rubber Damper on Cable External Viscous Damper Effectiveness
Eng, 2022 In practice, the internal rubber dampers are widely installed inside the cable guide pipe between the external viscous damper and the cable anchorage. In order to study the effect of the internal damper on the performance of the external viscous damper ...

On the interaction of exponential non-viscous damping with symmetric nonlinearities [PDF]
, 2008 This paper studies the interaction between non-viscous damping and nonlinearities for nonlinear oscillators with reflection symmetry. The non-viscous damping function is an exponential damping model which adds a decaying memory property to the damping ...

Nonlinear Wave Evolution in Interaction with Currents and Viscoleastic Muds
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 A numerical model is extended to investigate the nonlinear dynamics of surface wave propagation over mud in the presence of currents. A phase-resolving frequency-domain model for wave-current interaction is improved to account for wave modulations due to

Collisional and viscous damping of MHD waves in partially ionized plasmas of the solar atmosphere [PDF]
, 2004 Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves are widely considered as a possible source of heating for various parts of the outer solar atmosphere. Among the main energy dissipation mechanisms which convert the energy of damped MHD waves into thermal energy are ...
