Hybrid active-passive damping treatments combine the reliability, low cost and robustness of
viscoelastic damping treatments and the high performance, modal selective and adaptive …

This paper makes a first attempt to survey and discuss the advances and trends in the
formulations and applications of the finite element modeling of adaptive structural elements …

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 …

This work intends to compare two viscoelastic models, namely ADF and GHM, which
account for frequency dependence and allow frequency and time-domain analysis of hybrid …

The effective estimation of the vibration of spacecrafts are frontier issues in the aerospace
industry. But the vibration of aerospace components such as space solar panels and flexible …

A detailed literature review of the recent advances in hybrid vibration-control systems was
presented in this article. In the literature, a combination of two or more vibration-control …

This work presents the design and analysis of the piezoelectric active control of damped
sandwich beams. This is done using a specific finite element, able to handle sandwich …

To add damping to systems, viscoelastic materials (VEM) are added to structures. In order to
enhance the damping effects of the VEM, a constraining layer is attached, creating a passive …

An accurate material representation of polymeric interlayers in laminated glass panes has
proved fundamental for a reliable prediction of their response in both static and dynamic …
