Since Lord Rayleigh introduced the idea of viscous damping in his classic work" The Theory
of Sound" in 1877, it has become standard practice to use this approach in dynamics …

In this paper, numerical models are proposed for linear and nonlinear vibrations analyses of
viscoelastic sandwich beams with various viscoelastic frequency dependent laws using the …

This is the first of two companion articles addressing an integrated study on the
mathematical modeling and assessment of the efficiency of surface mounted or embedded …

This paper deals with the active vibration control of composite cantilever beam. Based on
the finite element method and Golla–Hughes–McTavish (GHM) model, the system dynamics …

This work aims to examine modal damping behavior in a delaminated viscoelastic structure.
A numerical assessment of a viscoelastic delaminated structure using one-dimensional …

To effectively suppress the low-frequency vibration of a thin-plate, the strategy adopted is to
develop a model-based approach to the investigation on the active vibration control of a …

Arteriovenous fistulae are surgically created to provide adequate access for dialysis patients
suffering from end-stage renal disease. It has long been hypothesized that the rapid blood …

Engineering structures are often assembled by subsections with various levels of energy
dissipation, which lead to great difficulties in analyzing. In this paper, a direct time integration …

Damping properties of viscoelastic composite structures are related to the thicknesses of
their layers. To design these structures, there is a need to know their damping properties …

Engineering structures for different dispersion and dissipation levels of wave propagation
use internal variable models, which may enhance the performance of acoustic …
