Development of Electromagnetic Friction Dampers for Improving Seismic Performance of Civil Structures
… which is termed as passive electromagnetic eddy current friction damper (PEMECFD), utilizes a solid‐friction mechanism in parallel with an eddy current damping mechanism to maximize the dissipation of input seismic energy through a smooth sliding in the damper. In the proposed PEMECFD, …

A Study of Non-Fluid Damped Skin Friction Measurements for Transonic Flight Applications
… experience during transonic flight, a vibration damping mechanism needed to be implemented. Viscous damping had been used in previous attempts to passively dampen the vibrations of skin friction gages in other applications, yet viscous damping proved to be an undesirable solution due to its …

A Vertical Coarse Approach Scanning Tunneling Microscope
… this frequency. Custom extension springs for an eddy-current damping system are built and tested. A low resonant frequency of 1.8 Hz is found, which is ideal for the application. Initial testing of the STM in ambient conditions is performed on two different surfaces. A moir´e supermesh [4] with …
