A Research on Loss Factor of Embedded and Co-Cured Composite Damping Structure

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, modal strain energy method is employed to calculate the modal loss factor of embedded and co-cured composite damping structure (ECCDS). To illustrate the validity of modeling and calculating method, the simulation results are compared with the experimental data. The effects of thickness, number and location of damping layers on damping performance of ECCDS have also been studied in detail.
