Experimental determination of damping property of structure

The needs for reliable and accurate damping properties are necessary in order to produce a good simulation and improve a major source of uncertainty at the design stage. Thus, an experimental investigation was conducted to find damping property of structure. In this study, three different plates wer...

description The needs for reliable and accurate damping properties are necessary in order to produce a good simulation and improve a major source of uncertainty at the design stage.

Damping properties were extracted from FRF using polyreference least-squares complex frequency-domain method (PolyMAX) and polyreference least-squares complex exponential time-domain method (LSCE).
