  Review on Unconstrained Layer Damping Treatment and Its Applications

  By M. Prasanth Kumar, P. Jyothi, N. Ramanaiah

  Abstract: The unconstrained layer damping is also called as free layer damping. It is formed by applying a damping material on the surface of a structure. This treatment was used to reduce and control the vibrations and noise in structures. This paper presents a review on unconstrained layer damping treatment on beams using different damping materials. The objective is to present various aspects and relative merits of unconstrained damping treatment use …

  Effectiveness of Extensional Damping Using Rubber as Layer

  By Prasanth Kumar Mallipudi, N. Ramanaiah, V.V.S. Bhaskara Raju

  Abstract: Structural damping treatments are free layer damping and constrained layer damping, made of metal and viscoelastic layer combinations which help to reduce vibrations. A free layer damping (FLD) treatment also known as Extensional Damping is formed by applying a coating of a damping material to one side of a structure. The treatment may be symmetric or asymmetric, and applied to beams, plates or shells in bending or in tension. In …
