A simplified representation of damping force in lumped-parameter systems with linear and nonlinear damping
… analysis techniques which determine the damping coefficients for each sub-system in the mathematical model of linear multi-degree-of-freedom systems, and to determine modal dissipation functions for nonlinear systems. For the purpose of this study, typical aerospace vehicle structure is …

Optimal passive nonlinear damper design methodology for road race application
… of the objective function by varying damping and inertance, identification of mode shapes and root locus analysis. No closed form solution exists for an optimal linear or nonlinear damper which maximizes lateral acceleration. Consequently, numerical analysis is required to solve the …

Effect of air on vibration of structures
… theory - are applied to derive solutions for damping ratios of air. Experiments such as an unbaffled plate experiment, a pendulum experiment and a baffled plate experiment are designed and conducted to observe the damping effect of air. Experimental results illustrate the applicability of the …
