Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose behind this study is to predict damping effects using method of passive viscoelastic constrained layer damping. Ross, Kerwin and Unger (RKU) model for passive viscoelastic damping has been used to predict damping effects in constrained layer sandwich cantilever beam. This method of passive damping treatment is widely used for structural application in many industries like automobile, aerospace, etc. The RKU method has been applied to a cantilever beam because beam is a major part of a structure and this prediction may further leads to utilize for different kinds of structural application according to design requirements in many industries. In this method of damping a simple cantilever beam is treated by making sandwich structure to make the beam damp, and this is usually done by using viscoelastic material as a core to ensure the damping effect. Since few years in past viscoelastic materials has been significantly recognized as the best damping material for damping application which are usually polymers. Here some viscoelastic materials have been used as a core for sandwich beam to ensure damping effect. Due to inherent complex properties of viscoelastic materials, its modeling has been the matter of talk. So in this report modeling of viscoelastic materials has been shown and damping treatment has been carried out using RKU model. The experimental results have been shown how the amplitude decreases with time for damped system compared to undamped system and further its prediction has been extended to finite element analysis with various damping material to show comparison of harmonic responses between damped and undamped systems.

Book Research and Development Needs in Finite Element Analysis of Viscoelasticity Damped Structures

Download or read book Research and Development Needs in Finite Element Analysis of Viscoelasticity Damped Structures written by David Kienholz and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vibration control in structures by means of viscoelastic damping material has gained wide acceptance, particularly in the aerospace industry. Significant weight, cost, performance, and reliability payoffs are possible in situations where resonant vibration cannot be avoided. Numerous examples of damping by constrained or unconstrained layers of viscoelastic material have appeared in the literature. However, the analysis of general structures to predict the damping due to an integral or add-on layered treatment or lumped viscoelastic elements is by no means a routine activity. The key to effective use of the well-developed technology of damping materials-will be a parallel improvement in analytical capability. It will be necessary to make reliable and timely predictions of the system damping which can be expected when a given viscoelastic material is incorporated into a given structural configuration. It must also be possible for working engineers to produce these answers in a project environment using widely available analysis tools such as computer codes. It is natural to look to finite element methods for damping predictions of general damped structures, just as they are used for routine calculation of the dynamic properties of undamped systems. Considerable work has already been done in this area, primarily aimed at prediction of damped response of simple structural elements such as sandwich beams, plates, etc. As participants in this work, it has been the authors' experience that current finite element tools show-much promise for analysis of structures which include viscoelastic damping material. However as with any emerging technology, there are specific questions, both theoretical and practical, which must be investigated and resolved in order to produce a reliable and useful design tool. The purpose of this paper is to describe the problem areas which, in the authors' view, must be addressed in the near term.
