Viscous and hysteretic damping
Capacity design, while protecting a structure against undesirable energy dissipations, has major implications on member sizes and overall cost. Furthermore, in some situations where protected elements possess some inelastic deformation capacity, it may be unwarranted.

Supporting brace sizing in structures with added linear viscous fluid dampers: A filter design solution [PDF]
Viscous fluid dampers have proved to be effective in suppressing unwanted vibrations in a range of engineering structures. When dampers are fitted in a structure, a brace is typically used to attach them to the main structure. The stiffness of this brace

A novel passive vibration-damping device is proposed and investigated for a large deployable solar array. One strategy for achieving high damping in a solar panel is using a yoke structure comprising a hyperelastic shape memory alloy and multiple viscous

Effects of Damping and Reynolds Number on Vortex-Induced Vibrations [PDF]
Vortex-induced vibrations have been studied experimentally with emphasis on damping and Reynolds number effects. Our system was an elastically-mounted rigid circular cylinder, free to oscillate only transverse to the flow direction, with very low ...

The role of viscoelastic foundation on flexural gravity wave blocking in shallow water
A hydroelastic model is developed to study the interaction of linear long gravity waves with a very large floating flexible plate resting on a viscoelastic foundation, which is based on the Kelvin–Voigt model.

Using a damper amplification factor to increase energy dissipation in structures [PDF]
Fluid dampers are an important tool for dissipating unwanted vibrations in a range of engineering structures. This paper examines the effects of amplifying the displacements transferred to a non-linear damper, to increase the effectiveness of the damper ...

Characteristics of passive vibration control for exponential non-viscous damping system: Vibration isolator and absorber [PDF]
Materials or structures made of polymers or composites often exhibit non-viscous damping behavior. The non-viscous damping forces that depend on the history velocity can be expressed by the exponential non-viscous damping model.

Material Damping in Dynamic Analysis of Structures (With LIRA-SAPR Program)
The purpose of this paper is to justify that it is necessary to take account of physical and mechanical properties of soil and different materials of erected structure for damping vibrations in dynamic loads; to suggest tools for modelling the damping ...
