Vibration Damping of Composite Textile Structures
topic
Vibration damping tests mount cantilever fabric or composite specimens on a vibration exciter and measure the decay rate of free vibration using accelerometers, calculating the loss factor and dynamic stiffness as functions of frequency; constrained layer damping configurations assess the energy dissipation contribution of viscoelastic textile interlayers.
Role
Quantifies the vibration attenuation contribution of textile-based damping layers in automotive panels, machinery enclosures, and structural composites where structure-borne vibration transmission to noise and tactile discomfort must be minimised by incorporated material damping.
