Abstract: A serious limitation in the use of sandwich type damping with a single viscoelastic material is that the effectiveness is very frequency dependent. Practical applications demand a high overall ...

Abstract: The main objective of the present work is to determine reduction in the unbalance response of a rotor shaft system by using a suitable polymeric or viscoelastic bearing support. For analysis, ...

Abstract: Results are reported on damping effectiveness during flexural vibrations of multi-layered beams, with constrained viscoelastic layers. These are given for simply supported beams with number of ...

Abstract: The Rayleigh-Ritz method is applied for the damping analysis offlexural vibrations of a simply supported plate, partially covered with constrained viscoelastic damping treatment. The anaysis is ...

Abstract: Governing equations for the analysis of pressure transient are derived from the principle of conservation of mass and momentum for a pneumatic brake system, which consists of a train pipe ...

Abstract: Vibration analysis of a simple flexible system mounted arbitrarily on a three-layer sandwich beam having a viscoelastic core and elastic faces is presented in this paper. The flexible system ...
