Abstract: A resonant beam tuned damping device, comprising a flexible beam joined by way of visco-elastic links at the ends, to a vibrating structure, is described. This device has the advantage of ...

Abstract: Analytical and experimental results for a five-span skin-stringer structure are presented. The analysis uses a transfer matrix technique which considers the effects of stringer dimensions including ...

Abstract: This paper reports the results of a preliminary investigation of the feasibility of reducing vibratory response levels in jet engine turbine blades by means of tuned damping devices incorporating ...
