Damping Characteristics of Viscoelastic Damping Structure under Coupled Condition

Temperature has an influence on damping characteristics of the viscoelastic damping structure. The change of the damping characteristics of the structure under the cycle load is a dynamic and coupled process. The hyperelastic-viscoelastic model was used to describe nonlinear deformation and viscoelasticity simultaneously. The temperature distribution and change of the damping characteristics un...

Equivalent Damping Ratios of Structures with Supplemental Viscous Dampers

The current design formulas such as those provided by FEMA273/274 for building structures with supplemental viscous dampers were derived based on the shear building assumption. However, for medium-rise to high-rise buildings that deform in a combined form of shear and bending when subjected to seismic loading, the design using existing formulas may result into an actual damping ratio much lower...

Linear Inviscid Damping for Couette Flow in Stratified Fluid

We study the inviscid damping of Couette flow with an exponentially stratified density. The optimal decay rates of the velocity field and the density are obtained for general perturbations with minimal regularity. For Boussinesq approximation model, the decay rates we get are consistent with the previous results in the literature. We also study the decay rates for the full Euler equations of st...

Analytical Matching of Optimal Damping Characteristics Curve for Vehicle Passive Suspensions

To facilitate the damping matching of dampers for vehicle passive suspensions, this paper proposes an analytical matching method of the optimal piecewise linear damping characteristics curve. Based on the vehicle vibration model, taking the suspension dynamic deflection as the constraint, by the vibration acceleration and the wheel dynamic load, an objective function about the relative damping ...
