Damping Property of Fabric Bending Vibration.

Damping Models for Structural Vibration

This dissertation reports a systematic study on analysis and identification of multiple parameter damped mechanical systems. The attention is focused on viscously and non-viscously damped multiple degree-offreedom linear vibrating systems. The non-viscous damping model is such that the damping forces depend on the past history of motion via convolution integrals over some kernel functions. The ...

Vibration Damping of High-Chromium Ferromagnetic Steel

The aim of the present work is to study the effect of annealing on the vibration damping capacity of high-chromium (16%) ferromagnetic steel. The alloys were prepared from raw materials of 99.9% purity melted in a high frequency induction furnace under high vacuum. The samples were heat-treated in vacuum at various temperatures (800 to 1200oC) for 1 hour followed by slow cooling (120oC/h). The ...

Viscous damping identification in linear vibration

Parametric identification of viscous damping models in the context of linear vibration theory is studied. Frequency domain identification methods based on measured frequency response functions (FRFs) are considered. Existing methods are classified into two main groups: matrix methods which use directly the measured FRF matrix, and modal methods which use modal parameters deduced from the FRFs. ...

Modeling friction for yarn/fabric simulation Application to bending hysteresis

This paper describes studies done at Gemtex Laboratory on the modeling and simulation of woven fabric. The main difficulty in this area is to take into account the hysteresis phenomena that occurs in fabric’s traction, shearing and bending behavior. Part I of this paper presents a friction based approach to obtain a time-free model for this nonlinear phenomena. Part II presents the application ...
